18–25 November 2026 | Santiago, Chile & Lima, Peru
Latin America is investing in the skills, technologies and training capacity needed for increasingly digital and technology-driven economies. For international education solution providers, understanding where these priorities are heading — and how they translate into institutional needs — is essential before developing the market.
The Worlddidac Strategic Education Mission to Chile and Peru brings international education and training providers directly into this environment. Over six working days, delegates will engage with education authorities, international organisations, leading TVET and technical institutions, and industry stakeholders to gain a clearer view of market priorities, investment directions, technology needs and opportunities for cooperation.
Why Chile & Peru?
Chile and Peru offer distinctly different perspectives on education and skills development — and that is precisely what makes the combination valuable.
Chile: Strategy, Innovation & Regional Perspective
Chile has a well-established education system, a significant technical-professional education sector and strong links between education, skills and industry.
For international providers, the opportunity is not simply to understand the Chilean education market. Santiago is also an important regional centre for organisations working across Latin America, creating access to wider perspectives on education policy, digital transformation, AI, workforce development and future skills.
Peru: Implementation, Technical Training & Institutional Development
Peru adds a particularly practical dimension to the mission.
Major technical education and training institutions work closely with industry in areas including automation, mechatronics, manufacturing, engineering, construction technologies, digitalisation and Industry 4.0. At the same time, national education and innovation programmes continue to shape the development of technical institutes, CETPROs and modern learning environments.
Together, the two countries allow delegates to see both where education and skills policy is moving and how those priorities are being translated into practice.

Go Beyond Market Reports
Market statistics can tell you how large a sector is. They rarely tell you how decisions are made, what institutions are planning next, which requirements matter locally or where an international solution could realistically fit.
This is where direct institutional dialogue becomes valuable.
Meetings with ministries and international organisations provide delegates with insight into national priorities, reform directions, investment environments, funding mechanisms and market-specific requirements.
Visits to technical education and training institutions add another layer: delegates can see laboratories and learning environments, speak with the people responsible for programmes and institutional development, and understand the practical challenges behind broader policy ambitions.
Industry engagement then connects education with the demand side — which skills employers need, how technologies are changing occupations and where education and training need to respond.

What Makes a Worlddidac Delegation Different?
The value of the mission lies not in the number of meetings, but in who delegates meet and what they can learn from each exchange.
Worlddidac develops the programme around the participating companies and seeks engagement with organisations representing different parts of the market — from those shaping policy and investment priorities to those responsible for implementing technical education and operating training environments.
Institutional visits are intended to provide time for meaningful discussion and, where relevant, access to laboratories, workshops and technical facilities rather than a sequence of short protocol meetings.
This creates a more complete picture of the market: Policy & Investment → Institutional Priorities → Practical Requirements → Industry Demand → Cooperation
Understand the Direction
Engage with education authorities, development organisations and regional institutions to understand policy priorities, TVET development, digital transformation, AI, skills strategies and the environment influencing future education investment.
See Implementation First-Hand
Visit leading technical education and training institutions and explore how automation, engineering technologies, digital tools and modern training systems are already being used.
These exchanges create opportunities to discuss laboratory development, equipment requirements, programme modernisation, teacher and trainer capacity and future institutional priorities directly with the organisations implementing them.
Explore Where Your Solutions Fit
For companies entering or developing a market, the important question is not simply “Is there demand?”
It is: Where is the demand developing? Who influences it? What are institutions trying to achieve? What local requirements need to be understood? And where can our expertise add genuine value?
