A recent investigation by El Comercio newspaper uncovered a network of expedited certifications issued by private entities lacking accreditation from SERVIR or recognized universities. These certificates have reportedly been used by individuals to obtain public office. A review of documentation reveals that Ebert Hernán Ordinola Ramírez, the newly appointed Secretary General of the Ministry of Education (MINEDU), also utilized such a certificate. The appointment has raised concerns regarding the vetting process within the ministry. The certificate lacks validation from a higher education institution. This case follows similar findings regarding the use of unaccredited credentials for public sector positions. The situation is currently under scrutiny, prompting questions about transparency and qualifications for key government roles.
