Skills anticipation. The Transfer of the SENAI Prospective Model
SENAI (The National Industrial Learning Service (Serviço Nacional de Aprendizagem Industrial)
SENAI has developed a Prospection Model that makes it possible to anticipate the demand for professional competencies and is based on different types of analyses, among them: technological, organizational, emerging occupations, impact, occupational trends, vocational training (VT). In performing studies, SENAI connects with a variety of sources: universities, enterprises, science and technology centres, sectoral experts and others.
The SENAI Prospective Model has proved its validity, quality and relevance, both in Latin America and in other regions. This acknowledgement extends to the vocational training institutions (VTIs) that make up the network coordinated by ILO/Cinterfor, which have repeatedly requested the transfer of this knowledge.
This paper provides a compilation of the results of the process of the programme “Skills anticipation – The Transfer of the SENAI Prospective Model” developed with five agencies: INA/Costa Rica, ILO-CINTERFOR
INFOTEP/Dominican Republic, INSAFORP/El Salvador, INTECAP/Guatemala and INADEH/Panama.
