"What is the level of professionalism in Spain in the Business Travel & MICE sector?
In Spain there are excellent professionals in the MICE sector. When one travels through different regions of the world one can realize that Spain does not have to suffer from any inferiority complex, quite the contrary. Spain is a very important player in our sector and professionals have gained a lot of experience with clients of all kinds. Over the years, this more empirical learning has been complemented by excellent university training. The important thing is not to neglect continuing education. In this sector it is essential to continue training, regardless of the profile and level of skills that each person may have.

"How is the demand for qualified professionals in this specialty evolving in Spanish companies?
The presence of qualified professionals is a market requirement and companies have no choice but to continue training them, in addition to selecting suitable profiles. Unfortunately, in the current situation, it is more difficult for companies in the MICE sector to plan their human resources needs in the long term. When they create event manager jobs, it is often to fill a short to medium-term need. Consequently, experience and quality training are essential to be operational almost immediately.

? What are the advantages of teaching through online channels?
Online training is a fantastic educational tool, as it offers absolute flexibility and convenience to the learner and is a lower cost. It is an ideal solution for people who already have a professional activity.
