On November 13 at Citilab in Cornellà de Llobregat, the award ceremony of the second edition of the Catalonia FP BIZ DAY Awards was held, promoted by the Department of Education and Vocational Training in collaboration with Caixabank Dualiza. 

The Fundació BCN Formació Professional has been distinguished with the Quality Excellence Certification in the reception process of dual VET with the support of the Institut Lluïsa Cura

These awards are the recognition of the effort of organizations to promote the development of dual vocational training (in an intensive system), the quality of the service provided, and the collaboration between companies and educational centers. 

The Foundation, together with the Management of Mobility, Infrastructures and Urban Services and the Municipal Tax Office, are the three units of the Barcelona City Council certified within the framework of the Dual VET Project at the Barcelona City Council, which each year counts on nearly 300 dual VET interns. The next step is to continue adding municipal departments with the quality excellence seal. 

In this 2025-2026 academic year, the Barcelona City Council has 298 VET interns, from 19 professional profiles and 23 VET centers in the city of Barcelona. 

The commitment of the Barcelona City Council is to intensive Dual VET, in the scholarship modality, training 2,870 VET interns with a total investment of €9.8M (2013-2026).
