The professionals from the Bachelor's Degree in Primary Education with a focus on Spanish Language and English, now known as Bachelor's Degree in Primary Education, held their first in-person meeting where they shared their experiences in their teaching roles.

On December 6, 2023, at the José María Otero auditorium (Faculty of Natural Sciences, Exact Sciences, and Education), graduates of the Bachelor's program in Primary Education with an emphasis on Spanish and English Language - Bachelor's in Primary Education, gathered for their first in-person meeting. This program has had two names, with the first set to graduate its final cohort on December 15.

The objective of the event was to share the projects they are currently working on and the environments in which they are employed. "It was a great opportunity where we met teachers from rural and urban areas, both in the public and private sectors, and we were able to learn from their experiences," stated Ángela Castro, program coordinator.

These types of gatherings are held every two years, with the first one taking place virtually in 2021, and the intention is to continue them with the same frequency. "These spaces are important for reconnecting with the university, with the teachers, with the experiences we lived in the past, but also for continuing our formation and sharing," added Ángela Castro.

Thus, the University of Cauca is pleased to continue being the home of its graduates, and we reaffirm that from this academic institution, there will always be open doors to continue building dreams and transforming lives.
