HUALDE ALFARO, Alfredo  y  TAPIA GARCIA, Guillermo Adrián. Relationship between Technical Education in High School and Production in León and Tijuana. RMIE [online]. 2020, vol.25, n.84, pp.261-289.  Epub 19-Jun-2020. ISSN 1405-6666.

This article studies, with a geographical focus, the degree of correspondence between the supply of technical programs in high school and the structure of local production--at the sector and subsector levels--in two large Mexican cities. The results show the gray areas of the relationship in both cities. Their economies are different, with unique specializations and subsectors, yet both believe that an important number of programs are related to production (more so in León than in Tijuana). The conclusion is that in certain subsectors, few programs exist in relation to the subsectors' importance in the local economy.
