Higher Technician in Multi-platform Applications Development (FP DAM)

Dual training in on-site mode:

Based on the Organic Law 3/2022 from the academic year 24-25 different significant novelties are introduced in the Vocational Education and Training system in Spain

• All Vocational Training will adopt a dual approach, which means that students will combine their learning between educational centres and companies.
• The Workplace Training (FCT) module will no longer exist as a separate component. Instead, work placements will be integrated directly within the modules of each training programme.
• This means that internships will not take place exclusively at the end of the course, but will be distributed throughout the educational programme and will be oriented towards the achievement of specific learning outcomes.

The new VET Law establishes two models of dual VET: the general model and the intensive model. The general model replaces the previous "classroom mode" and work placements in companies will represent between 20-35% of training hours, depending on the type of VET. In the intensive model, companies will assume 35-50 % of the training time. All higher vocational training cycles of UAX FP belong to the general model.

_{^{This changeover to the new Dual VET regulations (a standard version for the whole country except for the order of the modules and the teaching load set by each Autonomous Community) affects all first degree courses in any of their modalities (face-to-face or virtual) except for the Higher Cycle of Dietetics, which remains in the LOGSE training plan, prior to the current LOE*.}}

DAM stands for "Desarrollo de Aplicaciones Multiplataforma" (Multiplatform Applications Development), a higher level training cycle focused on the programming, design and maintenance of computer applications that work on different operating systems and devices.

Multiplatform Application Development consists of creating, implementing and maintaining applications that can run in different environments, such as computers, mobiles and tablets, regardless of the operating system. This specialisation prepares you to work with the most current and in-demand technologies in the digital sector.

To study DAM you should have an interest in technology, programming and problem solving. Skills such as logical thinking, creativity, the ability to work in a team, and basic computer skills are useful. Motivation to learn and adapt to new digital tools is also key to excel in this field.

At UAX FP you can study the Higher Technician in Multiplatform Applications Development (DAM) in two modalities: dual classroom and 100% online.

• Dual face-to-face mode: Combines classes at the Madrid Villanueva de la Cañada campus with internships in leading technology companies, offering you a complete and practical training experience.
• 100% online mode: Study at your own pace from anywhere, with live and recorded classes, allowing you to combine your training with your personal and professional life without sacrificing educational quality.

Both options include internships (which can be validated) in companies such as Telefónica, INDRA or BBVA, and are designed to adapt to your needs and maximise your employability.

As a DAM graduate you will be able to work as a software developer, mobile and desktop application programmer, support technician, technology consultant, database manager or digital project manager. The demand for professionals in this field is very high, both in technology companies and in any organisation that requires innovative digital solutions.
