Governor Renovates Adult Education Centers

Governor Roberto Sandoval Castañeda was present at the opening of Nayarit National Institute of Adult Education (INEA) renovated Community Center, in the community of Chilapa, Rosamorada Municipality, where young and adults 15 years and over who were not able to finish their studies in the regular school system, are able to complete their basic education.

The State official said that at this new area, young and adults will have the opportunity to either initiate or to continue their studies and is also the place where they will find the tools they need to become part of the work force; “this will be a sanctuary to many people, and this is the first one that has been renovated. I am happy this is happening in Chilapa, a town I value a lot because it is here where the future of so many people will be built,” said the official.

Furthermore, Lyda Somerville Zepeda, Director of Nayarit National Institute of Adult Education said that during 2014 last three quarters, Nayarit went from the 19th to the 14th position at national level in literacy, and informed that they have been successful in getting the approval to renovate 20 buildings, among Community Centers and state regional coordinators offices.

She also mentioned that 60 % of students attending INEA are 50 or older.

The Governor presented the town with what he considers to be a display of the campaign to renovate Adult Education Centers which is going on all over the country; he also acknowledged that three hundred thousand pesos (close to US $21,000.00) were invested in the renovation of this Center.

“I am proud – he said - of people like you who have a mission in life: to continue on preparing yourselves and acquiring more knowledge to become a better person. To all INEA educators I say, your mission is to bring back the hope, love and affection of all those who were not able to study before but today are proud to receive their certificates.”
