Friday, September 13, ended the first session of trainer training for the four new subjects of the 3rd cycle of fundamental education that will be taught from the next school year (October 1st, 2024): Teaching of Education for Technology and Productive Activities (ETAP), Aesthetic and Artistic Education (EEA), Physical and Sports Education (EPS) and Education for Citizenship (EC),

"This training that you will resume on behalf of the educational supervisors of schools and inspectors in the ten Departmental Directorates of Education (DDE) is in line with the efforts of the Ministry of National Education, aimed at improving the quality of education in Haiti" declared as a reminder Yves Roblin, Director General of the Ministry to the participants, at the closing of this session, on September 13.

"I am delighted to see that Education in Technology and Productive Activities, Aesthetic and Artistic Education, Physical and Sports Education and Education in Citizenship envisaged in the system since the Bernard reform in the 1980s, will finally be effectively taught in primary school, from the start of the 2024-2025 academic year on October 1, 2024.

At the same time, Roblin succinctly demonstrated the need to rethink the Haitian school in relation to the evolution of things at the regional and global levels and declared in conclusion "As Director General of the Ministry, I will work to achieve the diversification of sectors, to have resources leaving the system with a technical baccalaureate, to allow them to better orient themselves on the job market here and elsewhere. »

For his part, Kendy Nicolas, Director of Basic Education, visibly satisfied with the progress of this training session, specified that this trainer training will be duplicated for the benefit of 400 other local trainers who will train, in turn, nearly 250 heads of schools and 10,000 teachers, while waiting with time, to be able to train all teachers in Haiti.
