The Vice-Rector for Internationalisation, Ainhoa Uribe, took part in the 8th International Conference on Educational Innovation (CIIE) at the Tecnológico de Monterrey. During her speech she shared her vision of online internationalisation together with the Vice President for Internationalisation of the University of Toronto, Joseph Wong, in a debate moderated by the Vice Rector for Academic Affairs, Faculty and Internationalisation of the Tecnológico de Monterrey, Ignacio de la Vega, which was attended by more than 600 participants.

In her speech, Uribe commented on the digitalisation process at Universidad CEU San Pablo and pointed out that the strategy being implemented prior to COVID allowed us to adapt to the new situation and guarantee quality education for our students. She also presented COILS as an example of successful internationalisation from home and highlighted that we are the only Spanish university that offers American certificates compatible with all its undergraduate degrees.

During the hybrid event, experts from around the world shared educational trends and future expectations in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. This edition, held over four days, attracted more than 5,000 attendees from 34 countries who participated in keynote speeches and other education-related events.

The main objectives of the CIIE conference are to identify trends, challenges and opportunities in the current educational world; to propose new teaching-learning methods and tools that the new generations demand; and to promote the creation and strengthening of a multidisciplinary network of specialists who exchange experiences, good practices and value propositions.
