Nanodegrees are revolutionising the world of training and access to cutting-edge jobs on a global scale. These collaborative and customisable courses focus on skills rather than knowledge, and, thanks to ICT, are democratising education.

In a fast-evolving digital world, agility and flexibility in tackling tasks and projects is the key to success. But how is this achieved? By implementing a different way of organising and working. This is where an agile culture comes in, as it improves productivity and encourages the development of liquid organisations.

It is as important to have a good idea as it is to find the right mentors and be able to listen to them. Víctor Melgarejo is a mentor at the Monterrey Institute of Technology and, because of his long experience, he has a perfect understanding of the characteristics that an entrepreneur needs to have.

Transforming your professional outlook can be quick and easy thanks to bootcamps. We are talking about specialised intensive training that covers different branches of the digital sector. It lasts for around two months on average, has a practical focus, and seeks to cover employers' demand for labour. In addition, it does not require previous qualifications.

Data supplied by GSMA — an organisation that represents mobile network operators — shows that there are already over 5 billion mobile phone users worldwide. And rising. This is why the education and training sector cannot turn a blind eye to these new initiatives. The response is mobile learning, which transforms these devices into teaching aids.

The outlook for teachers around the world today is highly complex. Every day they face the challenge of engaging students who are different from those of the past and do not respond to the same stimuli, partly due to the influence of new technologies. To capture their attention, it is necessary to understand how the human brain works during learning, and this is where neurodidactics comes into play.
