BuenaOnda Talks: From technical education to real employability _
We inspire and provide concrete opportunities to young people betting on technology, connecting education with the job market.
The Problem
In Chile, many schools and technical high schools teach programming without translating that training into real employability. Content doesn't always match industry demands.
The promise of programming as a path to social advancement becomes frustration when young people discover their training isn't enough for the market.
This disconnect between technical education and companies is one of the biggest challenges for human capital development in Chile.
A structural problem
The weak link between technical-professional education, companies, and employability limits the transformative potential of technical training.

We immerse ourselves in vocational high schools with telecommunications training, bringing strategic market vision and concrete development opportunities.
