This article is an exploratory study of the relationship between virtual higher education and the promotion of equity and inclusion. For this purpose, it measures the perception of the students of the Politécnico Grancolombiano about the promotion of equity and educational inclusion in its virtual academic programs. The research adopts a quantitative approach using the survey as an instrument for data collection, corresponding to a non-experimental design and with a descriptive scope. The Politécnico Grancolombiano has virtual programs that have contributed to the inclusion and education of people from regions such as Santander, Amazonas, Arauca, Casanare, and Putumayo, among others, evidencing the great impact of the institution on the vulnerable and excluded population; in addition, the results show that the institution carries out training activities for professionals with diverse cultural identities, oriented to excellence, respect for difference, opportunities, free interaction and communication, as well as the possibility of accessing better job opportunities with levels above 90%, thus complying with its institutional educational project. Finally, we emphasize the importance of continuing to generate activities that promote equity and inclusion, and lead to the development of accessibility and opportunities for all, specifically in what has to do with the challenges towards the labor market.
