📋 Tender Overview
High school youth obtain documents that validate what they learned at school and allow them to work, undertake or continue technical studiesStudents were trained in technical support in computers, hairdressing and barbering, garment making, baking and pastry making.
More than 2,200 public school students received technical degrees and certifications that accredit the specialties they learned while they were in high school, reported the Ministry of Education (Minedu). With these documents, young people will be able to access a job more quickly, start a business or continue studies in technical institutes.
Of the total, 742 students obtained the title of Technical Assistant and 1,488 received certifications in different specialties. The beneficiaries belong to 13 regions of the country, including Lima, Piura, Ancash, Lambayeque, Ica, Loreto, Cusco, San Martin, Amazonas, Cajamarca, Junin, Arequipa and Puno.
This training was possible thanks to the joint work between 57 technical-productive education centers (CETPRO) and 65 public schools, where students develop technical skills while finishing high school.
The Minister of Education, Erfurt Castillo, pointed out that this training allows young people to leave school with greater opportunities. We want students to not only finish high school with their academic certificate, but also with a skill that will help them work, undertake or continue studying. The idea is that they have more opportunities from the moment they leave school, he indicated.
Among the specialties that the students learned include technical support and attention to computer centers, hairdressing and barbering, clothing making, as well as baking and pastry, trades that are in demand today and can generate income.
Currently, CETPRO also offer training in motorcycle and vehicle mechanics, welding, carpentry, cooking, jewelry, leather and leather goods, accounting assistance and administrative support, among other specialties.
Among the centers that participated in this process are the CETPRO United Nations, Jose Faustino Sanchez Carrion, San Gabriel, Francisco Garcia Calderon, Republic of Chile, Nicolas de Pierola and Carlos Cueto Fernandini.
This delivery of titles and certifications is part of the passability process, which allows recognition of the technical learning that students acquire during high school so that they can continue their training in a CETPRO or institute without starting from scratch.
