The evolving professional landscape necessitates educational innovation to prepare students for emerging challenges. This paper explores the integration of Vocational Education and Training (VET) and Higher Education (HE) through double-degree programs, challenging the conventional perception of these pathways as independent. Recognising the transformative potential in synergising competencies from VET and HE, we advocate for enhancing students' employability through collaborative curriculum design and shared learning objectives. Addressing limitations in the current VET-to-HE transition, we identify four criteria for successful double programs (i) coherent competency map, (ii) unified methodology, (iii) distinctive profile, (iv) own signalling. The paper concludes with a case study of an emerging dual VET/HE program in Navarra (Spain) built on the criteria outlined above.
