Instituto Superior Pedagógico Público Tupac Amaru (ISPTA or ISPPTA)

The Tupac Amaru University (previously educational) is located in Tinta. Her focus was on the training of bilingual teachers ( Quechua - Spanish).

Due to changes in the Peruvian education policy, this course is no longer in demand and has therefore expired in 2008.

The two new courses in Administration and Tourism have been offered since 2009.
