Digital transformation in higher education is no longer optional—it’s a necessity. On that journey, the University of the Basque Country (EHU) has trusted Fit Learning to design and digitally produce its university cybersecurity courses.
A project that strengthens Fit Learning as a strategic technology partner for innovation in university education.
EHU university cybersecurity courses with ECTS: University + Technology + Artificial Intelligence
EHU is launching a first edition made up of 7 specialized university cybersecurity courses, with ECTS accreditation and a 100% professional, practice-oriented approach.
The programs cover critical areas of today’s market:
• Cybersecurity Fundamentals
• Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC)
• Zero Trust, Cloud and Networks
• DevSecOps
• Incident Response (Blue Team)
• Security in industrial environments (OT)
• Offensive cybersecurity and active defense
Online university training that is flexible and designed for the real world.
But behind this proposal there is something even more powerful: a new way of producing university training.
Fit Learning’s digital factory: scalable university production
In this project, Fit Learning has applied its own production model based on technology, advanced methodology, and artificial intelligence.
This project is built on Fit Learning’s digital production model and our experience in custom courses, combining instructional methodology and technology to scale highly complex technical content.
Strategic microlearning
Content is structured into audiovisual learning units of 3 to 10 minutes, strategically designed to cover one key concept per unit.
This approach makes it possible to:
• Reduce cognitive overload.
• Improve focus and retention.
• Enable flexible, modular learning.
• Support personalized pathways based on the learner profile.
Microlearning is not just splitting content into smaller pieces; it is designing each unit with a clear, measurable objective aligned with real professional competencies.
This turns each module into an independent unit of learning impact—fully integrated within a coherent learning journey.
AI-powered audiovisual production
Using AI-generated avatars makes it possible to:
• Speed up production timelines.
• Ensure visual consistency across all courses.
• Facilitate multilingual adaptation.
• Scale the model to future editions without losing quality.
The university gains efficiency, sustainability, and the ability to keep content continuously updated.
Experiential learning with AI: applied and measurable training
Beyond theoretical content, the pathway includes an advanced experiential learning model that integrates:
• Applied hands-on activities.
• Personalized auto-graded tasks.
• Role-play simulations.
• Progressive assessments.
• Tutoring and faculty follow-up.
These activities are enhanced by AI systems that make it possible to:
• Create dynamic scenarios adapted to the student profile.
• Evaluate responses in real time.
• Generate personalized, contextual feedback.
• Measure competency development over time.
Role plays simulate real cybersecurity situations (incident management, risk analysis, decision-making during attacks, etc.), allowing students to interact with simulated environments that reflect real market challenges.
The result is learning that is:
✔ Experiential
✔ Personalized
✔ Measurable
✔ Applicable
✔ Effective
It’s not just about learning concepts, but about applying, deciding, and solving in simulated real contexts.
Technical rigor backed by industry experts
The content has been developed in collaboration with cybersecurity experts, ensuring:
• Continuous updates aligned with real threats.
• Practical application in professional environments.
• Technical rigor aligned with industry standards.
Fit Learning integrates expert knowledge within an advanced technology production approach, ensuring academic quality and digital excellence.
A project developed through Fit Learning’s Learning Factory
This project has been designed and produced through Fit Learning’s Learning Factory, our specialized unit for the industrialized creation of high-complexity technical learning content.
The Learning Factory is a proprietary model that combines advanced instructional methodology, scalable production processes, and AI-based technology to build large-scale, highly specialized, competency-structured courses.
It’s not only about producing content—it’s about designing complete learning architectures: competency analysis, modular structuring, strategic microlearning, simulation integration, automatic assessment generation, intelligent feedback systems, and multilingual scalability.
This approach makes it possible to build extensive, technically demanding programs—such as university cybersecurity courses—while ensuring methodological consistency, technical rigor, and production efficiency.
The Learning Factory turns complex projects into solid, measurable, and sustainable learning solutions over time.
A replicable model for universities and companies
This project shows how academic institutions and corporate training departments can:
✔ Modernize their training offer
✔ Integrate artificial intelligence into teaching processes
✔ Reduce development time
✔ Scale internationally
✔ Improve student experience and engagement
The digital experience has been designed with a focus on clarity, applicability, and flexibility.
