The Universitat de València announces 2 vacant positions in subgroup A2 of the Middle Technical Scale of Cultural Management and Heritage, through Resolution of 28 October 2026 (BOE-A-2026-23722), published on 12 November 2026 and in force from the following day. This is open access through the general system, which means that anyone who meets the requirements can participate, regardless of their current employment status.
The most relevant fact for candidates: the exercises of both systems —opposition and competitive examination— are held simultaneously. This means that those who apply can opt for both positions in the same process, maximizing their chances of access.
What does this regulation establish?
The resolution regulates access to the Middle Technical Scale of Cultural Management and Heritage of the Universitat de València. Below are the structural elements of the announcement:
| Element | Detail |
|---|---|
| System 1 | Opposition — 1 position |
| System 2 | Competitive examination — 1 position |
| Exercise celebration | Simultaneous for both systems |
| Type of access | General open access system |
| Minimum qualification | University degree, diploma or equivalent recognized |
| Language requirement | Valencian language certificate level C1 |
| Application channel | Electronic office of the Universitat de València (exclusive) |
| Participation restriction | Those already belonging to this scale at UV cannot participate |
| Current gender distribution in the scale | 75% women / 25% men |
The requirement for C1 Valencian language certificate is a participation requirement, not a merit. Those who do not prove it will be excluded from the process, regardless of their academic qualification or professional experience.
Economic and operational impact
For candidates, accessing a career civil servant position in subgroup A2 of a public university means job stability, remuneration linked to the collective agreements of the administration and services personnel (PAS) of UV, and access to the career progression of the public university sector.
From an operational perspective, there are two critical aspects that condition participation:
- Exclusively electronic application: Paper or in-person applications are not accepted. The candidate must have a digital certificate or electronic identification system compatible with the UV electronic office.
- Proof of C1 Valencian: This requirement must be met before submitting the application. It is not a merit that will be evaluated later: it is an admission condition.
- Exclusion of current scale members: Those already belonging to the Middle Technical Scale of Cultural Management and Heritage of the Universitat de València cannot participate in this announcement.
The gender distribution in the scale (75% women, 25% men) is statistical data that the announcement includes in accordance with transparency obligations regarding equality in public employment.
Who does it affect?
- University graduates (degree, diploma or equivalent) interested in public employment in the field of cultural management and heritage.
- Cultural sector professionals who have or can prove C1 Valencian language certificate and want to stabilize themselves in university civil service.
- UV staff or other administrations personnel who meet the qualification and language requirements and want to access career civil servant status.
- Candidates for Comunitat Valenciana civil service exams who follow announcements of subgroup A2 in public universities.
- Express exclusion: Civil servants already belonging to the Middle Technical Scale of Cultural Management and Heritage of the Universitat de València.
Practical example
A graduate in Art History with C1 Valencian language certificate who currently works as a cultural technician in a private company decides to apply for this announcement. As it is open access through the general system, she can participate without needing to be a civil servant or have previous experience in public administration.
When applying, she can simultaneously opt for both positions: the opposition position and the competitive examination position, since the exercises are held simultaneously. If she passes the opposition phase tests with a higher score than other candidates, she could be awarded the opposition position; if her accumulated merit profile is more competitive in the competitive examination, she would opt for that second position.
The only channel to formalize her candidacy is the UV electronic office. If she does not have a digital certificate, she must obtain it before the application submission deadline expires.
What should candidates do now?
- Verify qualification requirements: Check that the university degree (degree, diploma or equivalent) is officially recognized and valid for subgroup A2.
- Prove C1 Valencian: If you do not have the certificate, manage it urgently with the Junta Qualificadora de Coneixements de Valencià or competent entity, as it is an admission requirement, not a merit.
- Obtain digital certificate: The application is exclusively electronic through the UV electronic office. Without valid electronic identification it is not possible to apply.
- Consult the complete announcement in the BOE: Review the full text of the Resolution (BOE-A-2026-23722) to know the syllabus, merit scale, exact deadlines and required documentation.
- Prepare merit documentation: For the competitive examination position, accumulate and organize provable merits (experience, training, etc.) according to the official scale of the announcement.
- Submit the application within the deadline: Access the UV electronic office before the application submission deadline indicated in the announcement closes.
