Universities in Spain Collaborate with Qualcomm on 5G Training and Certification

Qualcomm announced its collaboration with three leading Spanish universities to provide 5G training courses. Via the Qualcomm Wireless Academy (QWA) program, students at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, University of Malaga, and Polytechnic University of Valencia will have access to 5G training and the opportunity to receive a 5G training certification.

The program has been designed to develop Spanish Universities students' 5G abilities and expertise as well as enhance prospective career possibilities in the tech ecosystem. As 5G expands into multiple verticals and industries, more and more talents are needed. Qualcomm is committed to nurturing the next generation of innovators and technologists and providing opportunities to accelerate the digital transformation of Spain and Europe.

Students at the universities will be able to enroll in free 5G training. The courses cover an overview of 5G, how it works, and how it is transforming the way the world operates. After completing the initial training portion of this program, students may sign up for QWA’s 5G Introductory-Level Certification exam. This certification can be used to show employers that students understand the basics of 5G and how it works.
