A successful venture into Information TechnologyPosted by: dvillacis in News feature
Only three months after having inaugurated the Technology Training Centre in Chemuyil, located at the heart of the Riviera Maya, 27 children, youths, and adults from this community received their certificates upon completing the Basic Computer Course, giving them vital access to information technology, which will offer them a world of new possibilities in entertainment, training, and new knowledge towards better horizons in life.
The Technology Training Centre in Chemuyil was constructed thanks to the support of Microsoft Mexico, and its business associates, who donated 14 computers, software, as well as programs necessary for training exercises, that covered subjects such as Word text processing, Excel spreadsheets, Internet navigation, even web design and management.
Training was given with no charge whatsoever for participants, and was achieved with the assistance of the State Institute for Adult Education (IEEA, by its initials in Spanish), which is endeavouring to spread its Technological Alphabetisation program. The IEEA regional coordinator, Jesus Leonel Sandi Juarez, acknowledged the great interest sparked by the TTC within the community, and stressed that the project will allow a curricular reinforcement to those who wish to conclude their primary and secondary school education through the open education system.
During her speech, Elizabeth Lugo Monjarraz, Xel-Ha’s executive director, beckoned those who received their certificates to continue their training with the very same enthusiasm demonstrated during the latter course, since preparation is a instrument that will greatly increase their opportunities of future success.
In her turn, Guadalupe Quintana Pali, director of Flora, Fauna, and Culture of Mexico, stressed how impressively immediate the generation of positive results has presented itself, with this alliance between Microsoft Mexico, Xel-Ha, and the non-profit organisation that she leads, with the common goal of creating benefits for this population.
The event was presided by Miguel Angel Parra Martin, head of the IEEA in Playa del Carmen, Miguel Pereyra Cordova, delegate of Cd. Chemuyil, as well as Daniel Elbiorn Dzubera, commercial director of Xel-Ha.
The Technology Training Centre operates within the facilities of the La Ceiba Community Centre/Library, a space open to reading, investigation, and consultation, of which 80% of its users are students, and the remainder adults. Likewise, this location is used by Xel-Ha to apply adult education programs, in coordination with the National Institute for Adult Education (INEA), workshops on painting, arts, and environmental care, as well as talks concerning social issues, all in benefit of the local population.
