Abstract

Technical-vocational education is one of the fundamental pillars that governs the educational system, and its strengthening is a task assumed by the Ministry of Education through the implementation of the National Policy on Technical-Vocational Training implemented through the National Strategy for Technical-Vocational Training. There are multiple challenges involved in carrying out actions to promote and generate instances of participation and decision-making that enable the involvement of all actors to articulate the educational system and economic development. In this sense, professional technical high schools with a specialty in preschool care assume a strategic and preponderant role in the education sector, since the young people who study the specialty put into practice what they have learned in classrooms and workshops allow them to effectively insert themselves into the world of work, access their professional practice and insert themselves into higher education. And, in most cases, to be an agent of change at the family level to improve the socioeconomic reality of their homes. For this reason, Chile needs to have technicians in the care of middle schools that will allow it to address the challenges of its own development and its growing participation in the preschool care system, with demands of greater added value, dynamic and challenging. In this scenario, alternation training will not only strengthen the specific technical competencies of the specialty, but also the capacity for innovation, entrepreneurship, teamwork, and a set of transversal competencies that will prepare students to work in multiple areas of education.
