Stresses the implementation in the IES Perez Chirinos this course of the cycles of Footwear and Oral Hygiene, "an educational and training offer quality of employment generation among young people"

It responds to the accusation of lack of planning that the Regional Advisory Council of FP, in which unions, administration, business associations, federation of municipalities and the ministries of Education and Employment are represented, elaborated a Regional Strategy of FP and Lifelong Learning for the 2015-2020 period

The General Director of Vocational Training, Sergio López Barrancos, visited the IES Ginés Pérez Chirinos this morning to explain to the students of the Fashion Shoes and Fashion Complements training cycle the first weeks of its implementation and to convey a message of tranquility after the latest news appeared, which, according to his words, "have put into question the good name of this educational center, which is a regional reference in Vocational Training" and have wanted to make "an unfortunate and excessive political use of education, wanting to damage the image of the training cycle itself, which, together with that of the Oral Hygiene cycle, is an important achievement and great news to increase the educational and training offer of quality that generates employment among young people ".

Lopez Barrancos explained that the implementation of a training cycle, and more of these characteristics, is complex, and that for the selection of teachers had to create for the first time in the Community a specific job board to which there were no requests in beginning.

"For several weeks the general directorates of Human Resources and Vocational Training were looking for candidates.Today the two technical professors who have to cover this cycle of Footwear are in their jobs," he specified.

Throughout the time of absence of this teacher, students have been receiving theoretical training before starting their activity in companies, "Theoretical training is essential to avoid risks in the workplace and know the basics to be able perform more practical tasks, "said López, who added that the shoe association CALZIA," as agreed, has a contract with a rental company for machinery that is already available. "

López Barrancos explained that the work carried out for the implementation of this cycle does not arise overnight, but is the result of a motion by the Popular Group in the City of Caravaca in 2015 approved by the rest of the political forces.

"From there, the General Directorate in collaboration with the footwear association, the educational center and the City of Caravaca has looked for the necessary machinery and classrooms, as well as the necessary teaching staff for its implementation. of implementing a cycle is huge on the part of the administration and Caravaca de la Cruz, in its IES Ginés Pérez Chirinos, has implemented this course two new cycles, the Footwear and the higher level of Oral Hygiene, a cycle that requires costs in very high equipment since it requires two dentist's chairs, in addition to the teaching staff and operating expenses, "he added.

As for the accusation by the PSOE of lack of planning reflects, according to the director general, a total ignorance of the reality in FP in the Region, since "the Regional Advisory Council of FP, in which unions are represented, administration , business associations, federation of municipalities and the ministries of Education and Employment, developed a Regional Strategy of FP and Lifelong Learning for the period 2015-2020, with four lines of action, which is being developed ".

"Based on this strategy we are holding meetings with entrepreneurs, chambers of commerce, unions, companies, associations and municipalities throughout the Region of Murcia interested in renewing and updating their educational offer in order to close the training offer of FP for the course 2018-19 during this quarter and be able to publish it in the month of April for the first time in our Region, "he said.

According to López, "the City of Caravaca not only has not requested any appointment to this Directorate General but also did not attend the meeting held with the Minister of Education to address education issues in each municipality."
