Honduras: Adult Education in Vocational Training

In Honduras, the Programme of Education for Labour (POCET) is a Central American example of this alignment between the regular educational systems, and especially adult education and training as life-long education. It is one of the first and richest experiences of integration between traditions among which historically there was little linkage and, at the same time, an experience of dialogue of those traditions with the new debates and paradigms that have involved cross-sectionally the spheres of education and vocational training, in which the new ideas regarding life-long education and training should be specially highlighted. In this case the Ministry of Public Education of Honduras and the National Vocational Training Institute (INFOP) have acted in an integrated manner, at the same time incorporating methodological approaches which are usually only to be found among nongovernmental organisations.

In this regard, the POCET programme is a central reference point for a whole tradition established around the principles of adult education, with its assistance-providing cast and its orientation towards literacy. POCET signalled the way towards integration of the contributions made at the time by all those linked to various forms of popular education with other currents -such as vocational training- with long experience in the field of education for productive labour. The latter currents are also deeply involved in profound debates arising both from the emergence of new production and labour paradigms and the employment market changes and from the persistence of groups and sectors that are left out.
