It is a tool developed in strategic alliance between Uruguay XXI and the National Institute of Employment and Vocational Training (in spanish INEFOP) and its strategy is to facilitate the development and access to talent for new investments with an emphasis on exports that are oriented to the generation of new jobs.

The program is aimed at supporting the demand of companies through co-financing for the implementation of training plans aimed at developing technical competencies or soft skills of workers, in order to incorporate them to their staff.

It allows financing -on a non-reimbursable basis- up to 70% of the costs of training plans at the companies' request.

Additionally, the program has a specific modality that promotes intensive digital training (bootcamps) in companies, which provides for higher subsidy amounts, subject to special requirements.
