Welcome to the Vasconcelos Program

We welcome you to the Vasconcelos Program –whose initials in Spanish represent Autonomous Vehicles to Support Learning and Leadership for Social Organization– and in this section, we present the concepts that orient and define our work, and provide information on our vocation: technological literacy.

In Veracruz, the Strategic Programs, promoted by Veracruz state governor, Fidel Herrera Beltrán, as part of an Education Sector Plan for 2005 – 2010 and instrumented by the Minister of Education, Dr. Víctor A. Arredondo. The Clavijero Consortium, the Rébsamen Centers, the Educational Channel and the Vasconcelos Program represent a multimodal approach to achieve a new educational paradigm.

We hope you enjoy our web-site.

OUR MISSION

OUR VISION

The Vasconcelos Program will be a permanent and self sufficient program for the social distribution of knowledge in dispersed and isolated sectors of Veracruz, through the use of new computer and telecommunication technologies and multidisciplinary teams of highly qualified staff.

”I just want to thank you for having taught us what we didn’t know, for having taught us to let go of our fears and shame, thanks for having patience as I think it was a huge effort on your behalf, I don’t think if I was in your place I could handle it nor have the patience, you all are very special people for myself and the rest of our school.”Translated text
Rosa, Student in the community of San Juan Chijolar, Tantoyuca, Ver.
”…I accepted to take the course…but it wasn’t an easy decision: because I thought it would be boring and tedious like other ones… But I was pleasantly surprised, the Vasconcelos Program is marvelous and the facilitators are experts.”Translated text

”Excellent work in support of us as teachers, in reality it’s a mega project that hopefully will grow even more. It has given me the opportunity to learn more, but most importantly in a cordial, friendly, respectful, dynamic way, which in turn creates an environment that is difficult to leave, but the best thing is that I will take it with me and be able to transmit it to others.”Translated text
Herlinda Evelia Hernandez E., Teacher from Xalapa, Ver.
