Neix Blanquerna Extended, la nova proposta formativa per aprendre al llarg de la vida

Blanquerna-URL presents Blanquerna Extended, a new educational offering based on lifelong learning. The initiative was created to support and guide people as they face new personal, professional, and social challenges, through a flexible, practical, and useful offering connected to the real needs of today's society.

Blanquerna Extended is aimed at a range of profiles: pre-university students, current students, professionals, families, and seniors. With this institutional initiative, Blanquerna extends its educational mission beyond the traditional university stages and reinforces its commitment to continuing education in the service of people.

The new offering integrates and expands the continuing education programs of the various Blanquerna-URL schools, and includes learning experiences in in-person, online, and hybrid formats. The goal is to offer pathways adapted to the needs of each person and the different stages of life.

Blanquerna Extended responds to an increasingly evident reality: people learn throughout their entire lives, especially during times of change, growth, adaptation, or transformation.

As Dr. Jordi Riera, general director of Blanquerna-URL, explains, "Blanquerna Extended represents a natural evolution of our educational mission. We want to continue supporting people beyond the traditional university stages, offering tools and practical knowledge to meet the challenges of every stage of life."

The program is built on the expertise of Blanquerna's faculty, close engagement with each student, and a humanistic outlook that places the person at the center of learning. In this way, the project preserves the university's values and distinctive character while adapting them to new formats and learning needs.

With Blanquerna Extended, Blanquerna-URL strengthens its position in the field of lifelong learning and reaffirms its commitment to actively contributing to people's personal, professional, and social development throughout their lives.
