Being a university professor wears a lot. It gives academic prestige to any professional curriculum. The academic summary of the emerging star of the PP, the deputy Noelia Núñez, who was set for falsehoods and vagueness, in addition to insinuating that she has university degrees – has yet acknowledged that it is not so – has slipped to be a professor of superior teachings at Francisco Marroquín University.
This Guatemalan private institution is based in Madrid, but obtained permission to operate in Spain under a premise: the studies they teach are “Not conducive to homologable titles to the Spaniards”according to the authorization issued by the Community of Madrid. That is, there is studied “according to the education system in force in Guatemala.”
Thus, in title issued in that center, it has no legal validity in Spain; If a job requires a degree, it does not work. In some old brochures, the university reports that you can ask for a homologation of the title, but omits that the process is pharragoso, you can lengthen years and does not guarantee success.
But, in addition, the Francisco Marroquí University is the institution that gave shelter in 2015 to the then former Health Ministry of Madrid, Javier Fernández Lasquetty, fallen out of misfortune due to the stoppage of his massive privatization plan of the Madrid public health system. He was Vice Chancellor of the Campus in Guatemala between 2015 and 2018. In December of that year he went to the head of the president of the PP, Pablo Casado. And shortly after he joined the government of Isabel Díaz Ayuso as Minister of Finance. He left the Executive in June 2023.
Noelia Núñez no longer appears in the tabs of the teaching staff of this university – in which they are, at least at its Madrid headquarters such as Juan Ramón Rallo. His name disappeared after the doubts about their academic background came to public.
However, to questions from The countrythat same headquarters was unmarked by answering that the emerging deputy of the Popular Party was a teacher at the Guatemala campus. The truth is that, to be a university professor in Spain, in general terms, you need to have some university degree.
The requirement of title is total, of course, to occupy a place as a professor, holder or assistant Doctor, positions in which he must be doctorate. The assistant teacher positions are linked to those who are doing their thesis once the degree and master are over.
The University Law allows the hiring of associated professors who are “specialists and professionals of recognized competence that accredit their main activity outside the university academic field when there are specific teaching needs related to their professional field”.
Then each university specifies based on its level of demand, but it is normal to open these positions to people with university degrees such as Specifies this analysis of the International University of Valencia. Thus, in This call of the National Distance University (UNED) it is literally said that among the requirements of the aspiring associate professors lists that they must be “in possession of the academic degree of a graduate, architect, engineer or graduate and accredit a professional experience outside the university field of a minimum of a minimum of three years, within the five immediately prior to their hiring”.
In This other call from the Complutense Universityalso requested the accreditation of the “effective” professional experience related to the subject that is going to be taught “by means of certificate of social security or mutual contributions or equivalent foreign organizations, issued by the competent body, and, where appropriate, registered in the tax of economic activities, as well as documentation accrediting the professional activity performed”.
Once the Fernando Marroquí University in Madrid has been erased from the publicized teaching activities of Noelia Núñez, the institution of the institution in Guatemala has not answered the questions of this newspaper about when the deputy began to teach classes and under what figure of the teaching staff she could have done it.
