The director of Colombia’s National Learning Service (SENA) has refuted claims of a financial crisis within the agency. SENA officials stated the organization’s budget has actually increased by 50% since the beginning of the current government under President Gustavo Petro. This increased funding has reportedly bolstered the agency’s operational capacity and allowed for continued implementation of its training programs nationwide. The agency emphasized its budgetary stability and commitment to ongoing projects across various regions of Colombia. These statements were released to address concerns regarding SENA’s financial health and program continuity. Officials aim to reassure stakeholders about the agency’s solid financial footing and future prospects.
