The data visualization certificate is directed by Juan Cañada, head of Maxwell Render at Next Limit.

For Laura Raya, Head of Engineering Postgraduate Studies at U-tad (in the image), 'these Certificates of Specialization cover the need for intensive training, specialized and concise in cutting-edge and differential areas of knowledge. With a high-class cloister, formed by industry professionals, with these certificates they will not only learn the most advanced concepts and techniques on the market in that sector to apply them in the world of work, if not that they will become an active part of a specialized networking at a professional level".
