What is SIGES?

Engineer José Antonio Pineda gave a live presentation of SIGES, showcasing functionalities for managing educational centers and students. The closing was led by the Minister of Education, Carlos Canjura, who highlighted that "the idea is to have a system that allows timely decision-making; initially, we will start by establishing this system regarding students, and it will be for both the public and private education systems."

SIGES is part of the consultancy "Design and implementation of an educational information system for the Ministry of Education," funded by FOMILENIO II for the Republic of El Salvador.
