Description
Economic units primarily dedicated to providing terminal technical secondary education (agriculture, forestry, fishing, industry, services, arts, physical education, languages), meaning that the certification awarded by the school does not grant access to higher education institutions, but recognizes the ability to perform specialized technical work. Admission to these schools requires prior completion of secondary education. These economic units offer their services through the traditional classroom system (fully in-person education, using a set format, defined in a specific time and place for students and teachers), the open system (blended learning, where students determine their own study time and subjects, studying independently but attending scheduled advising sessions at the school), or the distance learning system (where students work online in a digital environment using new technologies).
