The Board of Directors of FP Empresa Prepares New Challenges in León for the Upcoming 2024/25 Academic Year

The Board of Directors of FPEmpresa held a meeting on the 15th and 16th of July at the CIFP Tecnológico Industrial in León, a partner centre of FPEmpresa. During these sessions, the members of the Board addressed a wide range of crucial topics related to the role of the Association in the field of Vocational Education and Training (VET).

One of the key points on the agenda was the preparation for the next VET Congress to be held in Cartagena (Murcia) in the spring of 2025. The management team discussed various thematic proposals for the congress, aiming to ensure a relevant and enriching event for all attendees. Additionally, the international situation of FPEmpresa was analysed, particularly regarding participation in international projects.

The Board assessed the progress and impact of these projects, highlighting their importance for the global positioning of Spanish VET. Another significant topic was the implementation of the new VET Law for the 2024/25 academic year. The Board conducted a joint evaluation of the application of the law in the different Autonomous Communities.

This evaluation allowed for the identification of areas for improvement and the sharing of best practices among the regions. The update of projects in which FPEmpresa is involved also became a prominent point of the meeting. Projects such as the educational resources of IndesIA and the Iberdrola Digital Community are being well received by FPEmpresa’s partner centres, demonstrating their effectiveness and relevance in the educational field.

A significant moment of the meeting was the review of the results of the VET Congress held in Seville on the 25th and 26th of April at FIBES – Palacio de Congresos y Exposiciones. The evaluation data of the congress showed an average rating of 7.77 and a recommendation score of 9.6, thus exceeding expectations and confirming the success of the event. At the end of the meeting, Enrique Blanco, director of CIFP Tecnológico Industrial in León, expressed his gratitude to the Board of Directors of FPEmpresa for choosing his centre as the venue for the meeting. Blanco led a guided tour of the facilities, allowing the Board members to observe the various workshops used by VET students from different professional families.

“To conclude these sessions, I thank the entire FPEmpresa team for their commitment and constant work in favour of VET. In summary, this meeting marks significant progress in the planning of future events and the continuous improvement of VET in our country,” concluded Luis García, president of FPEmpresa.
