📋 Tender Overview
More than 884 teachers of Regular Basic Education (EBR) at the secondary level participated in the free training program MentorIA Peru - Artificial Intelligence for Education, an initiative aimed at strengthening the digital and pedagogical skills of public teachers through the ethical and responsible use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
The program was executed between May and October 2025 in targeted public educational institutions in Arequipa and surrounding districts, within the framework of the Interinstitutional Cooperation Agreement signed between the Regional Education Management of Arequipa (GREA) and the Businessmen for Education Association (ExE), approved by Management Resolution.
Thanks to this training intervention, a significant educational impact was achieved, indirectly benefiting more than 12,000 students, who participated in innovative learning experiences developed by trained teachers, using platforms such as Code.org, Canva IA, Teachy, NotebookLM and Magic School, among others.
The training was developed under a mixed virtual modality (synchronous and asynchronous) and was structured in three stages: Training of Trainers, Teacher Training and Transfer to the Classroom, allowing participants to integrate AI in the planning, execution and evaluation of their learning sessions.
The MentorIA Peru program was possible thanks to funding from Google.org, with technical support from the Kodea Foundation of Chile, and was executed at no cost to teachers, reaffirming the commitment of allied institutions to digital equity and the improvement of public education.
The certification of the teachers who completed the training route and the approval requirements were delivered in the auditorium of the Great Mariano Melgar School Unit and was attended by the Regional Manager of Education Lic. Marco William Choque Marnrique, Luciana Puente General Manager of Entrepreneurs for Education and Segundo Alfaro Coordinator of Digital Education Projects
With this experience, the Arequipa region is positioned as one of the pioneer regions in the pedagogical integration of Artificial Intelligence, strengthening the role of the teacher as an agent of innovation and contributing to a more inclusive, modern education aligned with the challenges of the 21st century.
