These new specializations address the need to equip students with practical and updated skills aligned with the real demands of the nautical sector, enhancing their employment opportunities in a growing market.
In parallel, and as part of the modernization of the training offer, the cluster has also updated and validated other essential specializations, adapting them to the current needs of the sector:
- Wooden boat construction.
- Naval electrical installation for small vessels.
- Hand lamination in polyester for aquaculture and shipbuilding components.

These initiatives combine the creation of new programs with the updating of existing ones, ensuring a modern and industry-adapted educational offering.
The ultimate goal is to provide students with the necessary competencies to successfully integrate into the nautical sector while reinforcing the growth and competitiveness of the industrial fabric in the Balearic Islands.
Balearic Marine Cluster thus reaffirms its role as a driver of training and employment in the sector, contributing to the sustainability and excellence of the nautical industry in the archipelago.
