On 23 and 25 March 2023, IFEMA Madrid will hold the 14th International Higher Education and Ongoing Training Fair, providing excellent tools for entering the job market. The event will highlight the growing importance of postgraduate studies as a third cycle and lifelong learning as an increasingly prominent offer. It will feature new content on graduate employability and retraining, as well as green and social entrepreneurship.

Once again, the Fair will feature the open campus training and young employment and green social areas in collaboration with the Higher Institute for the Environment, IMS. The event will take place in the framework of Education Week 2023, organised by IFEMA Madrid, from 26 March on the Recinto Ferial. The International Higher Education and Ongoing Training Fair will coincide with the 21st International Congress and Professional Fair Expolearning, with some important synergies. 

The Higher Education and Ongoing Training 2023 will bring together a broad range of the most comprehensive higher education and ongoing training opportunities, as well as an extensive programme of seminars, workshops and talks. These will be accompanied by numerous activities related to second and third-cycle training, ongoing training and encouraging entrepreneurship and youth employment. 

Graduates who want to continue their education to higher levels will find quick, efficient solutions to their training needs, and for professionals, active professionals, HR supervisors from companies, teachers and guidance councillors who want to update their knowledge, continue learning and steer their careers to find what they are looking for.

The open campus training and young employment will be one of the main tools the Fair provides for participants, with an extensive programme of seminars, talks and speeches delivered by education sector professionals to guide attendees in all matters related to employability.

Another major theme of the Fair will be the social green area, a space designed to incentivise social and green entrepreneurship with training workshops and product presentations in collaboration with the Higher Institute for the Environment (IMS).

As well as the 14th Higher Education and Ongoing Training, Education Week 2023 will include the 31st International Education Opportunities Exhibition, AULA; the 27th International Educational Equipment and Teaching Resources Show, and the 5th Congress of Resources for Education, the Red Interdidac Congress; the 21st International Congress and Professional Fair Expolearning, and the 4th edition of Schools' Day "Family and Schools Day"; as well as Madrid es Ciencia (Madrid is Science), organised by the Community of Madrid and the MADRID+D Foundation.
