Centre Training Plan

Year 2022/2023

The Escuela Superior de Diseño de Aragón (ESDA) is a centre for higher artistic education within the European Higher Education Area. The degree is Level 2 and 4 specialities are taught: Graphic Design, Product Design, Interior Design and Fashion Design. In addition, in Level 3 it has two approved official professional Master's Degrees.

Decree 166/2018 of the Government of Aragon regulates teacher training, recognising the relevance of teacher training as a means of improvement, adaptation and innovation in the face of constantly changing economic and social conditions that have a direct impact on the educational context. This training guarantees competent and appropriate teacher performance and is organised through the Training Network.

The educational centre participates in this work through the annual Centre Training Plan, organising a series of activities according to the needs analysis and the Strategic Plan that guides the actions. This plan is programmed in accordance with the annual call for training, the II Aragonese Framework Plan for Teacher Training and with the advice of the Teacher Training Centre of reference, in our case the Juan de Lanuza CP.

This document, together with the training activities organised, is included in the Annual General Programme.

The following activities are planned for the training of this course:
