Technical Education and Training Modernization Project (PMETYC) • PMETyC began its formal operation in September 1995, • under the auspice of two federal government instances: • The Public Education Ministry • The Work and Social Welfare Ministry Goal: To supply high quality educational and training services, according to industrial requirements for productivity and competitiveness.
Systems for Standardization and Certification of Labor Competencies In order to reach PMTyC’s goal, it was necessary • To develop systematic linkages between workforce supply and demand • To promote formal qualification awarding for: • students • unemployed people and • active workers To accomplish these functions, there were created two systems: • Sistema de Normalización de Competencia Laboral • Sistema de Certificación de Competencia Laboral
CONOCER Systems for Standardization and Certification of Labor Competencies are developed and operated by: Consejo Nacional de Normalización y Certificación de Competencia Laboral, best knowed by its acronymus: CONOCER

Changes in CONOCER financial and legal Schemas. In 1995, PMTyC was created under the following financial schema: • 2.35 million USD loan from World Bank • 3 million USD grant from the Inter American • Development Bank • Resources from Mexican Federal Government
Changes in CONOCER financial and legal schemas As planned since its creation, PMTyC arrived in 2003 to its consolidation phase, and CONOCER has recently changed its legal figure and financial schema.
CONOCER Operation strategies Period Phases Instrumentation of Standardization and Qualification Systems (SNCCL) and development of experimental institutional cases 1995-1997 Expansion of SNCCL and transformation of educational offer, based on market requirements 1998-2000 Adoption of competency model by educational and training systems and work organizations 2001-2002 2003-2010 Consolidation of SNCCL
Instrumentation By august 2004, CONOCER has: • Developed 601 Technical Labor Competency Standards (NTCL) • Extended 256,282 Labor Competency Certificates
Adoption In order to promote a rapid adoption of Competency Model in national context, CONOCER implemented a special Program characterized by a direct and integral intervention with some leader mexican enterprises. Among the most successful cases of these Institutional Projects, are: • Bimbo (One of the most important baking companies • in the world) • Palacio de Hierro (One of the largest chain of • department stores in Mexico)
Expansion Besides private industries, demand for Labor Competency Model has also permeated the most important public enterprises, such as CFE and PEMEX. Also, various Latin American governments had signed cooperation agreements with CONOCER, among them: Guatemala Panama Peru El Salvador Costa Rica Honduras Uruguay Brazil Colombia Dominican Republic Chile
Consolidation. Quantitative results From 1997 to 2004, CONOCER has reached results that increment future viability of both, Standardization and Certification Systems • At present, developing a NTCL takes about 25% of its 1997 • cost • The number of Awarding Bodies in Certification System has • increased about 300% • The number of Assessment Centers in Certification System has • increased about 500%
Consolidation. Qualitative Results As a consequence of model expansion and empiric results, CONOCER has transformed its profile, changing its function from a merely operative one, to a role of conceptual support and technical assistance. On this basis, the Council has defined some proposals about the insertion of Labor Competencies in academic Curriculum.
CONSOLIDATION Definition of different Competence types CONEVYT SEP Basic Competencies: Reading, Writing,,Math (Essential in curriculum development) Key Competencies: Tolerance, respect to other people rights, multicultural adaptation, ecology, etc. (To be developped in family and social life and reinforced by academic curriculum) Personal Employability STPS CONOCER Labor competencies: NTCL (Insertion of modular programs referred to NTCL into discipline based curricula) CONOCER proposal for Curriculum development
