📋 Tender Overview
With the purpose of contributing to a better understanding of the role that the Technological Higher Education Schools (EEST) play in the Peruvian educational system, the Association of Institutes and Schools of Higher Education of Peru (ASIEES), the National Council of Education (CNE) and Senati organized a dialogue table at the facilities of the latter institution. The meeting brought together representatives of the educational, productive and business sectors to exchange reflections on the identity, relevance and challenges of the EEST.
In this first session, the participants addressed the topic Identity and meaning of the EEST, to analyze the characteristics that distinguish these institutions within the higher education system and the challenges they face to consolidate themselves as a relevant training proposal articulated with the productive sector and the environment.
In this regard, the CNE advisor, Jose Luis Naranjo, maintained that technological higher education schools have a strategic opportunity to contribute to the development of the country through training closely linked to the needs of the productive sector and the use of the potential of the territories. He indicated that, in a context marked by high levels of informality and a limited capacity to generate formal employment, these institutions must promote innovation, applied research and entrepreneurship.
The table was attended by representatives of the General Directorate of Technical-Productive and Higher Technological and Artistic Education (DIGESUTPA) of the Ministry of Education, Peruvian Institute of Educational Law, Association of Exporters (ADEX), IPAE, Es Hoy, ASIEES and other institutions linked to technological higher education and the productive sector.
