Professional experience is no longer enough on its own to keep pace with a changing labour market. As industries adopt new technologies, update standards and require new qualifications, many specialists need ways to continue learning without stepping away from their careers.
The Continuing Education University Centre of the Technical University of Moldova offers accredited programmes for adults who want to update their qualifications, retrain or develop new professional skills. The programmes are designed to be flexible and are completed with nationally recognised certificates. Some also offer a double diploma recognised in the European academic space.
The Centre develops its professional development, reskilling and micro-credential programmes together with industry partners and international organisations, including Erasmus+ and the International Labour Organization.
