The event was attended by the Vice Minister of Employment and Social Security, Verónica López; Alfredo Mongelós, Technical Secretary of Sinafocal and general coordinator of Uti for the Ministry of Labor; Zulma Morales, general coordinator of Utipor for the Ministry of Education and Patricia Ávila, general coordinator of the Regionals for the National Secretariat of Tourism.
