Nine months to equate all university degrees



It was a "pending" since 2007, according to the Secretary of State for Education, Montserrat Gomendio. All those who have studied a university career prior to the implementation of the European Higher Education Area or Bologna Plan (graduates, graduates and engineers of the previous system) have a outdated title that may pose a problem or a cumbersome process of passing through window if you want to work outside. The Ministry of Education wants to solve it within a maximum period of nine months and facilitate the documentation to individuals directly from the official website, without passing through window.

According to the Ministry of Education, professionals who have suffered more complications are, along with engineers, architects and sanitary (nurses and doctors) who studied with the old model. Since 2009, education has received 63,000 requests for the validation of titles, according to official data. But this modification may be for the benefit of the millions of graduates prior to the European Higher Education Area, added from the ministry.
