Convenio sobre el desarrollo de los recursos humanos, 1975 (núm. 142) - Nicaragua (Ratificación : 1977)

In a direct request made in 1993, the Committee noted with interest the creation of the National Technological Institute (INATEC) responsible for coordinating the planning, implementation and supervision of all programmes of vocational training and technical education and for assuring to this effect continued concerted action by the various competent ministries. The Committee notes that the INATEC, which has a tripartite Governing Council, has modernized vocational training with a New Model for Vocational Training. The INATEC is supported with international technical assistance, in particular from the ILO, which is implementing a programme for strengthening the Nicaraguan vocational training system financed by the Government of the Netherlands. The Committee trusts that the Government will continue to provide information on the activities of the INATEC to ensure application of the Convention, indicating also whether measures have been taken to extend the vocational training systems, in accordance with Article 3 of the Convention.
