In this sense, SENA apprentices will be able to access job offers at USCO, in the productive stage in the form of internships, and students from the Universidad Surcolombiana will be able to carry out their work, professional, pedagogical, social, teaching, internships, internships, judiciaries and/or social service in the SENA.
A bet on regional development
The Rector of the Universidad Surcolombiana, Nidia Guzmán Durán, stated that “this agreement is very important because we are going to make an alliance where SENA students can come to the university and have their entire training process. This is actually very significant for the community at large; They are two official institutions that we come together and we are going to work in common agreement to benefit the students and the entire South Colombian region.”
For her part, Regional Director of SENA Huila, Adriana Milena Gasca Cardoso, highlighted the importance of this agreement by pointing out that “”it is a milestone for the region and the department, because 20 years ago we were trying to join forces and be able to articulate these two institutions. It has four major scopes: creating a chain in training topics, so that our graduates can enter university; the process of research, innovation, knowledge transfer and others, as well as innovation and technology. “Everything that relates to entrepreneurship and facilitating internships for university students and our apprentices.”
With this agreement, both institutions will also contribute to the fulfillment of one of the goals of the National Development Plan in terms of education, such as expanding coverage; as well as development and well-being for the entire Huila community.
