Strengthening Job Training: ANCYPEL E-Learning Congress Kicks Off in Granada

Here’s the translation into American English:

This Friday, the Training and E-learning Congress 2025 was inaugurated at the Granada Congress Palace, focusing on the impact of artificial intelligence in the educational field and the urgency of adapting training policies to the new digital environment. Organized by the National Association of E-learning Centers and Providers (ANCYPEL), the event brings together experts from various sectors with the goal of analyzing the current state and future of digital training and employability.

Arturo de las Heras García, president of ANCYPEL, opened the congress, emphasizing the need to gather specialists in artificial intelligence and leadership. “The future of our youth and workers depends on continuous training that adapts to technological changes and labor market demands,” he stated. Additionally, De las Heras highlighted the importance of effective collaboration between the government and the private sector to improve the quality of training and adequately respond to business needs.

In the first presentation, Eva Ledo Cabaleiro, deputy director general of the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training, presented the strategic lines that the government will implement to modernize vocational training. Ledo emphasized that the new law aims to align with market demands, focusing on challenges such as digitalization, reskilling, and innovation. She stressed the relevance of a flexible training offer that allows workers to acquire skills throughout their careers.

Meanwhile, Valeriano Gómez, president of the CIFE Foundation, provided a diagnosis of employment training in Spain. Although he noted an increase in adult participation in training programs, Gómez also pointed out the ongoing challenges, such as the low uptake of training in small and medium-sized enterprises. He also mentioned the limited budget execution in the Ministry of Education, warning about the need to increase investment to move toward a model of vocational training that is more in line with the labor market.

In an additional panel, Antonio de Luis Acevedo, managing director of FUNDAE, shared statistics on the growing demand for programs related to digital skills. He highlighted FUNDAE’s commitment to serving as a bridge between training and professional development, emphasizing the increase in business participation in training programs.

The second day of the congress promises to be equally enriching, focusing on the impact of artificial intelligence on education. Notable figures such as Gonzalo Romero from Google will discuss the role of AI in personalizing learning. Additionally, representatives from companies like HP and Microsoft will share their perspectives on the future of education.
