MUMCI students experienced an insightful visit to Café Ortega.

Café Ortega shares its commitment to quality, innovation, and family tradition with the master’s students.

On Tuesday, May 26, Master’s students in Marketing and International Trade at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria visited Café Ortega, guided by General Manager Mr. Ariel Ortega, Commercial Director Mr. Pablo Ortega Plácido, and their quality team.

During the visit, the students learned about the production and quality processes behind the company’s products, as well as the certifications that endorse Café Ortega’s excellence. They observed how the company innovates through its commitment to organic products and the new Orígenes specialty coffee line, while maintaining traditional ranges that have served the Canary Islands for years.

The visit let students appreciate the positive working environment of this family-owned Canary Islands company, where the third and fourth generations work side by side.

From the Classroom to Professional Practice: Training with Audit Professionals through the DEFC

The Department of Financial Economics and Accounting continues to promote training activities that connect classroom concepts with professional practice. In line with this commitment, several professionals from the auditing sector were invited to participate in classes at the Faculty of Economics, Business and Tourism during the second semester.

Professors Javier de León and Andrés Dorta welcomed Javier Juliá Jiménez and Manuel Pedrero García, professionals from the auditing firm PwC, to deliver two sessions aimed at students of the Degree in Tourism. In addition to introducing students to the importance of auditing in the business
environment, they worked with fourth-year students in the course Accounting Analysis on an applied case study focused on a hotel company. Likewise, in the first-year course, Financial Accounting, they explored in greater depth the structure and content of the Balance Sheet and the Profit and Loss Statement, reinforcing these topics from a practical perspective closely linked to the reality of the tourism sector.

In the fourth-year course, Auditing of the Degree in Business Administration and Management (ADE), Professor Vicente Redondo Guarás invited Eduardo Ramos Gil and Raquel Melián Hernández, managers at the auditing firm EUDITA Auditores. The session focused on the practical analysis of a real case
study, addressing different issues related to the auditing of fixed assets, external services, clients, going concern, and fraud, as well as the main audit procedures, proposed adjustments, and their impact on the annual accounts audit report, including the drafting of the corresponding qualifications.

Finally, in the second-year course Management Accounting of the Degree in Business Administration and Management (ADE) and its Double Degree programs, Professors Margarita Mesa Mendoza, Arminda García Santana, and Sonia Granado Suárez welcomed Javier Álvarez Cabrera, partner at the auditing firm RSM Spain, who presented a practical audit case focused on inventory valuation and product costing.
