With the aim of strengthening technical training, professional development and human capital development in projects under the Free Trade Zone regime, Portafolio Inmobiliario and the National Learning Institute (INA) formalized a Framework Cooperation Agreement.
The initiative seeks to coordinate efforts between the public and private sectors to respond to the real demands of the labor market and promote employability, business competitiveness and sustainable economic development.
The agreement establishes the Western region of the country as its starting point, where implementation will begin at Costa Rica Green Valley, a project developed and operated by Portafolio Inmobiliario in the canton of Grecia.
From there, its extension to other developments is planned, with an initial term of four years.
Among the main scopes of the agreement is the implementation of INA Satellite Training Models, as well as the joint design and execution of training programs aimed at operational, technical, and administrative personnel of companies already operating or to be established in projects developed under this framework.
The purpose is to ensure a training offer tailored to the needs of the productive sector, strengthening the link between training, employment, and productivity.
“This alliance represents a key step toward continuing to generate real growth opportunities for people and for the companies that trust in our developments. Investing in local talent is investing in the development of our country,” said Alfredo Volio, Executive Director of Portafolio Inmobiliario.
For its part, INA will contribute its technical, academic, and methodological expertise to ensure an accessible, up-to-date training offer aligned with labor market demands.
The institution seeks to expand the reach of training in free zones and other spaces for personal and professional development, in line with its objective of strengthening employability at the national level.
