Telefónica Learning Services changes its name to Telefónica Digital Education

In order to capture new opportunities in the education sector both, in Latin America as in Spain, and give a more current approach, the subsidiary of the Spanish operator, known until now as Telefónica Learnig Services (TSL), will be renamed Telefónica Digital Education.

Telefónica Learnig Services (TSL), subsidiary of the Telefónica Group specialized in online training, has changed its name to Telefónica Digital Education, with the aim of adapting to new business opportunities in the global field of education.

The new company is the evolution of an entity that has a history of more than 14 years offering online training and digital education solutions to companies and public organizations internationally.

Telefónica Educación Digital aims to capture new opportunities in the education sector both in Latin America and Spain and provide an approach that goes beyond an online training company, bringing the brand closer to the digital training market, both at the university and school level.

Throughout 2014, Telefónica Digital Education has experienced great growth and currently has 400 employees in five countries (Spain, Colombia, chile, Peru and Brazil), 300 clients and 4 millions of students on different platforms, and develop, through its own factory, more than 20.000 contents per year.

Telefónica Digital Education has expanded the portfolio of products and services in the field of education by carrying out teacher training programs, with educational platforms for schools and accompanying the implementation of technologies in the classroom, to offer more personalized and collaborative learning in the Digital Society.

Telefónica Digital Education will continue with its commitment to free open training (Moocs) with project like MiríadaX, the Mooc platform in collaboration with Universia (Santander Group) which already has more than 1.125.000 students enrolled in almost 200 free courses offered by the platform.

The subsidiary dedicated to training began in 2013 its international expansion and opened subsidiaries in Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Peru from where it provides services to clients from those countries as well as other markets such as the United States., Central America or Europe.
