Corruption, financial disequilibrium, unemployment, inflation, among other factors, have been the cause of the
general crisis in today’s society, they have produced a time lag for the economic, educational and social
development of Latin American countries. Colombia is not the exception to t his set of problems, on the contrary, it
is a country that today has been hit by economic and financial difficulties , corruptive acts at a national
governmental level, drug trafficking, and a series of conflicts that have brought instability to the productive system
of the country, therefore affecting growth in as much as competitiveness, innovation and technology .
Facing these problems from the national government point of view, it is necessary to shape some educative
policies at a higher educational level. The Higher Educational Institutions, including technical and technologica l
must make reforms to t heir institutional structures, adapting them to market demands. That is why, inside general
parameters, the education of teachers must be included as a main cross sectio nal axis for student’s learning.
According to Rodriguez (2017) the curri culum goes beyond the discourse, since it must be a triad among
curriculum-education-culture, in which the complete teacher’s education is implanted in a labor and personal
environment. This educative formation have repe rcussions on the student’s academic process, using the evaluation
as a measuring strategy that allows to prove that the learning implemented on students has been interpreted in a
correct way (Silvera, 2016).
In front of the new edu cative trends that Higher Educational Instit utions are facing today, are found
competitiveness, innovation and technology, as essential components for opt imizing the student’s education and
mainly that of teachers. According to Gómez & Martinez (2014), the framework of an organizational structure must
respond to the inner needs, being flexible to the external environment and guaranteeing permanence in the
market. For this, it requires an innovating capacity through management of knowledge. That is why, universities
for being competitive must educate their human capital, in such a way, that through knowledge, new cha nges can
be made in order to transform society.
