Through coordinated work with the government, unions, universities, companies, foundations and international organizations, among other entities, Insaforp has certified workers in companies and self-employed workers for labor competencies.

The certifications delivered today are part of a model coordinated with the Ministry of Economy, where the Cámara de Comercio e Industria de El Salvador (CAMARASAL) and the  Universidad Salvadoreña Alberto Masferrer (USAM) have played the role of evaluators.
