Abstract

In 2018, Senac National Department, in the constant road to modernization of its professional education policies, established an important partnership with the Inter-American Center for Knowledge Development in Vocational Training (Cinterfor), a body of the International Labor Organization (ILO), based in Montevideo, Uruguay.

Cinterfor/ILO is responsible for coordinating a network of public and private entities and institutions, composed of more than 65 organizations in 27 countries in Latin America, Caribbean, Spain and Africa. During more than its 50 years of activities, it has been devoting itself to the consolidation of labor competences and knowledge dissemination in the labor education field.

The publication of the Senac Journal of Education and Work special edition is the initial result from this partnership, which also anticipates an extensive research on skills development practices to the 21st Century, identified by Senac as “Formative Marks”.

In the following interview, Fernando Vargas and Anna Beatriz Waehneldt talk about two instances when the institutions were together in 2017: Senac Regional Directors Annual Meeting in Campos do Jordão, São Paulo; and the Seminar Vocational Training Methodologies Based on Projects, Challenges and Opportunities, promoted by Cinterfor/ILO in Montevideo, having the latter even motivated the production of this special BTS edition.
