Over thirty profiles at the campus have successfully completed the core curriculum of the 42 learning program, guaranteeing them 100% employability.

42 Barcelona celebrates its third anniversary with the ‘Transcendence’ ceremony, an event recognizing over 30 students for completing the ‘common core,’ which guarantees them 100% employability in the technology sector, a field in constant demand for qualified professionals.

The ceremony featured participation from Sara Diaz Roig, Executive Director of Strategic Sectors and Talent at Barcelona Activa of the Barcelona City Council; Joan Cruz, Director of Institutional Relations at Fundación Telefónica; and Ainhoa Zamora, Director of 42 Barcelona. Each honoree was presented with a symbolic diploma commemorating their achievement.

Ainhoa Zamora, Director of 42 Barcelona, highlighted the significance of this milestone in the students’ learning journey: “Completing this step typically takes an average of 18 to 24 months of effort, perseverance, and intense work. It marks a decisive advancement in their professional growth, as they can now begin to specialize in the areas of their choice. It’s a milestone of particular significance.”

Completing the ‘common core,’ which involves acquiring fundamental technical programming skills, means these individuals are now fully qualified digital professionals ready to enter today’s technology-driven workforce. This achievement has demanded dedication, hundreds of hours of programming, and above all, collaborative work—the cornerstone of learning at 42.

Now, not only are they guaranteed 100% employability as qualified digital professionals in today’s labor market, but they also embark on a new phase of growth as ‘outer cores.’

In this new stage, they will choose which trends or specializations to pursue further: blockchain, cybersecurity, data analytics, cloud computing, quantum computing, video game development, and more. Ahead lies a new chapter of development, equally challenging and demanding as the first, with 14 additional levels of knowledge awaiting them to push their potential even further.
