We believe that it is very relevant to be able to add training instances for the teachers of our institution, and for that reason, we are launching eleven training proposals that address the challenges of our time from a comprehensive perspective”. 

The more than 1000 teachers who participated in the last Pedagogical Workshop agreed that, as a consequence of the scenario posed by the pandemic, it was necessary to design new strategies that meant the reconfiguration of classrooms, proposing to recover such experiences in a format based on face-to-face that prioritizes spaces for dialogue and participation in the construction of knowledge and that uses virtuality as a key complement to expand access to higher education and guarantee the permanence and graduation of students.
