Study Further Education in Spain
Further Education in Spain gives international students aged 16+ the opportunity to continue their education in a Spanish-speaking environment while experiencing everyday life in Spain.
The programme takes place in Murcia, in south-east Spain, where students can combine vocational studies with a complete cultural and linguistic immersion experience.
Unlike a traditional Spanish language course, students attend a vocational education programme related to their academic and professional interests. Depending on availability, previous studies and admission requirements, students can choose from different vocational areas.
Living with a Spanish host family and studying alongside local students also provides an excellent opportunity to improve Spanish naturally and become part of everyday life in Spain.
What is Further Education / Vocational Education in Spain?
Vocational Education and Training in Spain is commonly known as Formación Profesional (FP). It offers students a practical alternative to more academically focused routes and prepares them for specific professional sectors.
Vocational programmes combine theoretical learning with practical training, projects and professionally oriented subjects.
Depending on the programme, practical workplace training may also form part of the official curriculum.
The programme available to each student will depend on their age, previous education, Spanish level, chosen area of study and the admission requirements of the education centre.
For this reason, Inglés y Punto reviews every student’s profile individually before recommending suitable programmes.
What can I study?
A wide range of vocational areas may be available in Murcia. Options vary according to the academic year, institution, previous qualifications and availability.
Study areas may include:
- Business and Administration
- Marketing and Commerce
- Technology and IT
- Engineering-related studies
- Health-related vocational studies
- Audiovisual Media
- Design and creative studies
- Construction-related studies
- Arts and Humanities-related vocational programmes
- Other professional and vocational areas
Before enrolment, we help students identify the most appropriate options according to their academic background, interests and future plans.
Spanish level required
Students will study in a Spanish-speaking educational environment, so having a good level ofCentro Oficial Spanish is important.
A minimum B2 level is recommended. Depending on the chosen institution and programme, students may be required to provide evidence of their Spanish level or complete an assessment before admission.
If the student does not already have an official certificate, their language level can be assessed before the programme.
Living with a Spanish host family
Accommodation is provided with a carefully selected local host family on a full-board basis.
Host family accommodation is an important part of the immersion experience. Students use Spanish in everyday situations, discover local customs and experience family life in Spain rather than living only within an international student environment.
Our families are located in the local area and understand the needs of international students.
The Inglés y Punto team remains available throughout the academic year to support both the student and the host family.
Why study in Murcia?
Murcia is a university city in south-east Spain with a Mediterranean climate, a lively student atmosphere and a strong local identity.
Students can experience Spanish culture and traditions while continuing to enjoy sports, leisure activities and social life during their stay.
Murcia and its surrounding towns offer shopping centres, cinemas, restaurants, sports facilities and a wide variety of activities for young people.
One of the main advantages of choosing Murcia is that Inglés y Punto is based locally. Our team can therefore provide direct support to students and host families throughout the programme.
