Pensar Cursos educational expansion and certification

Overview

Pensar Cursos, a distance learning platform established in 2013, has expanded its educational catalog and implemented a new certification system. The platform now offers approximately 2,200 free courses with certificates featuring the MEC Seal (Ministry of Education).

These certificates are issued as university extension courses through partnerships with higher education institutions accredited by the Ministry of Education. To ensure authenticity, the documents utilize dual QR codes and authenticity codes for verification via the e-MEC system and partner colleges. The company also allows former students to upgrade existing certificates to the MEC Seal model without retaking courses.

Further expansions to the platform’s portfolio include 67 technical courses, 188 postgraduate specializations, and MBAs. Additionally, the platform has introduced learning tracks that bundle three courses into a single package and enrollment proofs validated by QR code to assist students in requesting educational licenses from companies such as Autodesk.
