VIRTUAL EDUCA CARIBE 2009
LATIN AMERICAN FORUM ON NEW TECHNOLOGY
Training, innovation, corporate social responsibility and sustainable development<\/STRONG><\/P>
\n

Description <\/STRONG><\/P>
\n

The Latin American Forum on Virtual Educa New Technology, part of the System of Latin American Summits, announces the opening of its fourth regional Caribbean meeting which will concentrate on training, innovation, corporate social responsibility and sustainable development. <\/P>
\n

Its mission is to reunite representatives from the public and private sectors and Latin American NGOs with a common goal of introducing good practices, studying and exchanging experiences and, with a synergy of effort, reach conclusions on how to successfully and efficiently train employees in new technology in order to place them in the work force, promote innovation and contribute to sustainable development. The event aspires to create new alliances on a national and international level, to promote the multiplication and expansion of successful practices and to establish bases for permanent exchange. <\/P>
\n

Purpose<\/STRONG><\/P>
\n

The purpose of this program is the development of relations between the key actors who are indispensable for business and competitiveness and those capable of attracting and retaining a well-trained work force, re-launching brand image and promoting social responsibility.  <\/P>
\n

Goal<\/STRONG><\/P>
\n

Our goal is to raise awareness among the various key respondents, to create new national and international associations and alliances and to promote a continuous and daily interchange of information and experience in the area of permanent training; to establish how technology can be incorporated into conventional training and how all of this can ultimately contribute to the sustainable development of communities and the country\u2019s competitiveness.<\/P>
\n

Justification <\/STRONG><\/P>
\n

The continuing need to adapt to the various methods used to introduce production and labor competition systems is a challenge for each country. Pressure for the country to remain competitive, making sustainable growth possible, is endless and, indeed, always increasing.  Adopting new skills and training to maintain competitive production of consumable goods is inconceivable at this point without the use of technological resources and other innovations. <\/P>
\n

To achieve smooth and efficient performance, there is an indispensable need to establish a dialogue among the key agents in the introduction and application of technology and innovative systems for training and development of human resources to generate and offer value. <\/P>
\n

The challenge for both sectors can be alleviated by a coordinated program of corporate social responsibility that will contribute not only to the creation of wellbeing and progress, but also to the fair and equal distribution of benefits among all layers of society. <\/P>
\n
