'Different capacities, infinite possibilities' is the motto chosen by the Catholic University of Murcia to commemorate the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.

UCAMPACITAS
The UCAMPACITAS project, launched by the Catholic University of Murcia in 2012, prepares young people with disabilities in academic, professional and personal skills.
The students are trained during two academic courses - including a quarter of labor internships in companies from different sectors - and obtain the title of 'Technician of companies and socio-labor activities'.
The central axis of this program is the inclusion of students with intellectual disabilities in the university and work environment, and for this purpose they are trained with qualified teachers in the fields of pedagogy and psychology, as well as job coaches.
The UCAM has incorporated to its staff 14 students of the UCAMPACITAS program, in addition to the six that have been hired by companies in the Region.
UCAMPACITAS is framed within the Chair of Social and Labor Inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities, through which it organizes activities aimed at promoting teaching, research and dissemination objectives in the field of people with intellectual disabilities.
