“With micro-credentials, we strengthen the social role of the university and consolidate lifelong learning as an accessible tool for everyone” - UniversidaddeCádiz

The university is like a bicycle: if it does not move forward, it is destined either to fall or, in this case, to wither until it disappears. Even more so in an increasingly competitive environment, where higher education must face challenges that were unthinkable barely a decade ago. Among them is the adaptation to common teaching frameworks designed to transform the transnational space—particularly within Europe—into a vast shared campus. A place where curricular and teaching projects flow across borders and where mobility becomes the rule rather than the exception. Equally crucial is the development of strategies that integrate the university within the broader learning ecosystem of society, especially among groups that traditionally remain outside the academic sphere. These two areas shape the daily work of María de Andrés, Director General for International Degrees and Continuing Education at the University of Cádiz. In this interview, she analyses how the UCA is adapting to new trends in the internationalisation of education and the role of micro-credentials in the present and future of the institution.
