22 May 2023

Los Teques, Venezuela - May 2023 - The Meeting of the Work Training Centers of the Youth and Work Network was held from May 9 to 11. The meeting was held in Los Teques in the "Villa Don Bosco" work, with the participation of the Network's General, Pedagogical, Pastoral, and Administrative Assistants Coordinators. The objective was to provide tools for the sustainability of the centers starting from the reflection-action of the situation of each one. The training space was oriented toward the realities of the centers in the Network, with the sharing of experiences, concerns, and challenges that come with the transformation of the Educational Centers for Employment Training (CECALs in Spanish) into Schools for Entrepreneurship, according to government directives. A number of CECALs in the country were presented, where it is important to point out that much work has been done in recent years on the curricular unification of courses, with the aim of fostering the upgrading and professional development of faculty and staff, encouraging innovation and creativity. Participants at the meeting made a number of commitments including: motivating them to continue working with faith and hope, letting them know that the changes that will take place will be primarily for the good of young people; formalizing processes internally, and promoting training elements for staff; and strengthening networking.
