It is not who you are but whom you know

It is not who you are but whom you know

If we talk about who we are as individual teachers forgetting about who we are into the context SENA, like an island, the real sense of the vocational training will be lost.  Although there are many SENA centers around the country, the reality is that each center performs the comprehensive professional education on its own way, by the other side if we take advantage of the networks like misena mail and internal networks and tools ( platforms on line) the share of experiences would result in a better performance of the vocational training.

On the way to the future

The documents reviewed about the World in 2030 highlights and the one where CEPAL gives a  view about latinomerica`s options for the future, are good  tools when proposing projects in the framework of professional comprehensive training.  The problems approach, by itself originated from individual and collective needs gives rise to alternative solutions to the different economic sectors. It is vital the role that education plays in the search for balance between human, economic, social and environmental development and in this sense it is interesting that as a teacher, each one  initially assumes the role of guide and mentor but finally as a projection of the teacher`s life project he/she becomes in another member of the team that achieve in the apprentices a profile of individual thinker and protagonist of his/her own formation process as part of their life plan or professional development plan. 

When we talk about empowering people to pursue strategies of leadership and management  of resources, we are talking about improving the quality of the teacher's performance, considering that probably in near future cultural factors are going to persist such as social inequality, the scarcity of food and resources, and accelerated climate change; As Colombia has a lot of natural and human resources, I consider that  the closest approximation   in the case of our country, to get high quality in education and improving in the productivity of different sectors is the achievement of peace, or at least keep looking for it  in the way of achieving it, I believe that these negotiations will allow us some day to close a little gap between rich and poor people and probably will help to get a revival of the middle class.
