Abstract

This article summarizes the most important results of a research addressing teachers' opinions about curricula reforms based on working competencies at technical-professional high schools currently implemented in Chilean education institutions. Main findings show that factor and vector models used at the theoretical field can be replicated in other specializations of technical-professional high schools. From teachers' point of view, Electricity specialization is better implemented than Accountability in the curricula reform. Institutions with delegate management perform more accordingly to a reform based on working competencies than subsidized ones. Performance in schools from Fifth and Eighth Regions is much better than in Metropolitan Region.
