Core offering

Fundación Escuela de la Edificación is a non-profit foundation that delivers postgraduate and continuing education programs for the construction and real estate sectors. Its core offering includes master's degrees in Real Estate Management (MIP), Project and Construction Management (MPM), Facility Management, and Building Science and Engineering, plus modular expert courses in International Asset Valuation and Industrialized Construction, delivered in-person, hybrid, and online formats with university accreditation through UNED and UFV.

Product overview

Fundación Escuela de la Edificación offers a suite of postgraduate educational programs in building and construction management, delivered both in-person at its Madrid campus and online via a private e-learning platform (Campus). The core portfolio includes three flagship master's degrees — the MIP (Máster Inmobiliario Profesional) focused on real estate asset and property management with international valuation standards, the MPM (Máster en Project Management) covering project and construction management with modules on sustainability and lean construction, and the MPF (Máster en Facility Management) covering asset-to-service management. These are supplemented by a modular expert program of specialty courses (including the 95-hour Valoración Internacional de Activos course and multiple valuation sub-courses), standalone professional certification programs (such as Técnico Especialista en Construcción Industrializada), and a calendar of masterclasses and professional events. Programs are offered in three delivery formats: in-person, hybrid, and fully remote/streaming, with corporate In Company training also available. Some programs carry university degree recognition from UNED or UFV. The school has also incorporated ICPMA-accredited instructors and AI-related content into its curriculum.

Direct peers

• EAE Business School: Business school with postgraduate programs in real estate, project management and related business disciplines for working professionals. It competes for the same career-oriented learners and employer-sponsored training budgets.
• IMF Business School: Business school offering online and in-person postgraduate education, including real-estate and project or construction-management programs, with a corporate-training model. It overlaps with the subject school's working-professional target market and flexible delivery proposition.
• CEF.- Centro de Estudios Financieros: Spanish education provider with postgraduate and professional programs in finance, valuation, real estate and project management, serving a similar professional audience. Its focus on specialist continuing education makes it a close commercial comparator.

Broad incumbents

• Universidad Europea: Private university offering professional and postgraduate education with exposure to construction project management and real-estate-related business disciplines. It is a broader incumbent for the same career-advancement and corporate-learning demand.
• IE University: Premium university offering postgraduate education in real estate, finance and management to an international professional cohort. It is a broader incumbent that competes for senior real-estate and construction talent seeking advanced credentials.
• RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors): Global professional body that sets land, property, construction and valuation standards, accredits professionals and provides training. It directly overlaps the school's standards-led valuation credentials but is not a conventional school.

Others

• Moodle: Open-source learning-management platform used to power the school's private Campus. It is an enabling ecosystem participant rather than a direct competitor, but its technology category is materially relevant to the school's delivery model.

Regional players

• Colegio Oficial de Arquitectos de Madrid (COAM): Madrid professional architecture body providing continuing education, technical networking and industry access for building professionals. It is a regional comparator for professional development rather than a direct tuition competitor.

Emerging players
