PROFESSIONAL
ASSESSMENT (LPA).
MUCH MORE
THAN AN
ACADEMIC
TRANSCRIPT.
When you receive a holistic education that prepares you to be a more complete person and professional, such as that offered at Universidad Europea, a standard academic transcript cannot reflect the competencies and values that you gain throughout your studies.
The LPA is a certificate developed by Universidad Europea – the only one of its kind in Spain – that you receive when you complete your studies. It aims to help you stand out in the job market by documenting the superiority of your learning experi-ence at Universidad Europea.
In addition to your academic transcript, the LPA evaluates your development of the eight most in-demand skills in today's companies, which are the central focus of our academic model: communication skills, leadership, teamwork, adaptability,
initiative, problem-solving, decision-making, and planning and organization.
It also includes any value-added education-al experiences that you have had, such
as professional internships, study abroad, participation in social respon-sibility projects and language learning.
We’re all different and we’re born with a gift. Picasso said that all children are artists... Why should they stop?
Education tends to standardize, to rein in talent... to penalize the risk of thinking differently.
It is time to change.
Because when you go to university, that unique gift you were born with is still there, unawakened. You still have all the potential to shine.
And this is our mission: to help you become your best version of you, knowing that everyone learns in a different way.
The rules of work have changed. Forever. We think people will work in a new way. Without borders. Your profession will be part of your life, and so enjoying your work will be essential to your happiness.
That’s why we need to be a different university for each individual, to help you develop fully as a person and as a professional
So that you become your best version of you, the one that will make you shine.
WE BELIEVE THAT
EDUCATION SHOULD
HELP YOU BECOME
YOUR BEST VERSION
OF YOU.
