For this to be the case, the relevance of the courses offered is important, that is, that they really are a regional need and translate into more and better jobs,” he said. the seremi.

To achieve this “relevance”, since last year a series of work meetings began with the 21 municipalities and Omil in the region. The goal of 2024 will be to add businesspeople and workers from the main economic areas of Ñuble to these work tables. “If we want the people who take our courses to get better jobs or improve their working conditions, then the courses must be well chosen and there is no way to do it if we do not ask the actors themselves in this broad and diverse local universe,” Riquelme indicated.
