Skills UP Programme

Dacsa Group has collaborated with the Polytechnic University of Valencia in the SKills UP programme which aims to connect university studies with the changing job demands of the real world. In addition, it aims to improve the employability and entrepreneurial skills of students, thereby boosting the key interdisciplinary skills that graduates need.

On behalf of Dacsa, our colleague Manuel Ochoa, Group Origination and Sustainability Manager, has been the person in charge of directing the session, under the title “Trend in food production, sustainability and genetic modification”. Manuel has spoken about the history, evolution and situation of genetically modified organisms (GMO) in the world, as well as their advantages and disadvantages, legislation and market trends.

During the programme, we have been able to enjoy a debate where the students´ great persuasion, communication and leadership abilities have been seen.

At the end of the session, our colleagues África Valldecabres and Justo Aznar, from the People Department, talked about the job opportunities at Dacsa and the different training programmes, advising students to enjoy their future work roles.
