Universidade Católica Portuguesa certified with the COVID-SAFE verification seal by APCER

Universidade Católica Portuguesa (UCP) is certified in its 4 campi (Lisbon, Porto, Braga and Viseu) with the COVID-SAFE verification seal attributed by the Portuguese Certification Association (APCER). This certification verifies that UCP fully complies with the guidelines issued by the Health General Directory (DGS), the Authority for Working Conditions (ACT) and the International Labor Organization (ILO) regarding safety and health procedures and practices in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

UCP has been implementing processes and installing equipment and material in order to safely receive its students, teachers and employees at the beginning of the 2020/21 school year, with the teaching activities starting at the beginning of September, according to the schedule of each academic unit. Classes will be given with a hybrid teaching methodology (blended learning), with students attending them on a rotational system, both physical and online, so that the most rigorous protection and safety measures are respected.
