📋 Tender Overview
The Minedu Program will bring together more than 97,000 Peruvians on Sunday, November 16, in the largest knowledge test in its history. National Police and local observers will accompany the process.This Sunday, November 16, the National Scholarship and Educational Credit Program (Pronabec) will carry out the National Pre-selection Examination (ENP) for Scholarship 18-2026, a simultaneous evaluation throughout the country in which more than 97,000 Peruvians will participate. To guarantee a safe, transparent and reliable process, the Ministry of Education program has established rigorous measures to be carried out before, during and after this evaluation.
Preparation and safeguarding of material
In line with Pronabecs principle of impartiality, each service in the ENP process has been entrusted to different educational institutions and specialized companies that participated in the selection processes and were awarded. In each step, transparency and correct development of contracting regulations were guaranteed.
During the preparation of the exam, security protocols were applied that included entry controls using metal detectors, surveillance with security cameras 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and the use of computer equipment without connection to the internet or internal or external networks.
Once production was completed, the materials were sealed in sealed packages, stored in notarized safe boxes, to later be transferred under protection. On the day of the evaluation, its distribution nationwide will be carried out with custody and controlled opening at each headquarters.
Application under strict operational control
The ENP will take place on November 16 in person and simultaneously in 180 locations strategically distributed nationwide, in order to facilitate access for participants. The execution will be led by Pronabec staff, both from the headquarters and from its offices present in all regions of the country, who will supervise compliance with all operational protocols.
Likewise, an educational consortium, also selected through a public tender, will be in charge of the logistics and training of the staff that will support during the day, including orientation and attention to incidents for the correct development. They will also provide assistance to participants who have a disability to ensure an inclusive and equitable evaluation.
Upon receiving the participants who will take the exam, their identity will be verified with their physical ID and, in certain cases, their biometric identity will be verified with a fingerprint reader. They will also be checked with metal detectors. All actions will be led and supervised by Pronabec personnel at each evaluation location.
For its part, the National Police of Peru will guard the transfer of the material to the evaluation premises and will maintain order during the entry, stay and exit of the participants who will take the test. There will also be observers and local authorities who will supervise the process.
Processing and publication of results
Once the test is completed, participants will be able to take their question booklets with them. For their part, the optical sheets, which contain the answers, will be processed by a specialized company in charge of digitizing and consolidating the information. This is collected and then delivered to Pronabec. It should be noted that confidentiality measures have been applied to all personnel involved in the different phases of the ENP process.
The results of the ENP, along with the additional points for prioritizable conditions, will be published on December 22 at www.pronabec.gob.pe/beca-18 Those who obtain the best scores will be able to continue in the process to access one of the 20,000 scholarships offered.
