IX Congress of Technical-Vocational Students from the Far North of Chile
"Employability Skills and Industry Engagement"

The formation of human capital is strategic for the development of a competitive and sustainable industry. In this challenge, technical-vocational education plays a fundamental role in preparing new generations with the necessary skills to face the challenges of the productive world and contribute to the development of their territories.

Under this conviction, for each edition of EXPONOR, the Don Bosco Antofagasta Vocational School organizes the Congress of Technical-Vocational Students from the Far North, which brings together students from technical-vocational establishments from the far north to promote dialogue, the exchange of experiences and reflection on the future of technical education

In its ninth version, the congress was attended by 121 students from Student Centres from different technical-vocational establishments in the municipalities of Antofagasta, Calama, María Elena, Mejillones, Taltal and Tocopilla, strengthening the link between education, young people and the development of the industry.
