The Peruvian state has developed national policies that largely address the population seeking access to Technical Productive Education (TPE). However, these efforts prove insufficient in addressing the complex public issue of accessing elementary-level technical education. A significant portion of the population aiming to enter the National Center for Technical Education (CETPRO) as a prominent alternative does not necessarily find optimal conditions, leading to the perception of CETPRO as an unattractive option. Moreover, considering CETPRO as an integrated modality, the transition from elementary to higher education is not viewed as a viable opportunity to cultivate a competitive workforce in the labor market.

The main objective of this study is to assess the relevance of the competency-based approach in teaching practices within technical and vocational education in the Dominican Republic. The focus is on two institutions: the Instituto Técnico Superior Comunitario (ITSC) and the Instituto Nacional de Formación Técnico Profesional (Infotep). The study participants included both students and teaching staff from these institutions. The findings reveal that both ITSC and Infotep are highly regarded across the measured indicators, particularly in the category of pedagogical aspects.
