According to experts, continuing education is essential to keep teaching updated in light of the rapid changes in society and technology.
The Importance of the USP-School Meeting for National Education
Created in 1999, the USP-School Meeting is recognized for strengthening collaboration between higher education institutions and schools, contributing to raising the quality of public and private education in Brazil.
The event promotes not only technical and pedagogical updates but also dialogue about contemporary challenges in education, encouraging innovative and inclusive practices.
According to recent studies, the continuous training of educators is directly linked to increased student performance and reduced school dropout rates, a problem that the meeting also addresses in its courses.
