Barcelona Campus
Training in maritime and intermodal transport at the Port of Barcelona
The technical courses offered by the Escola Europea are dedicated to professionals who want to take deep dives into specialised topics from the transport and logistics sectors.
Port Operations – Goods
Big differences exist between countries regarding the quality and costs of the port and shipping services available to their importers and exporters (e.g. in terms of towage operations, mooring, etc.). The existing infrastructures and connectivity of the port are also of major importance for traders when choosing to bring their goods to their destinations.
