Abstract:

Within the framework of a project that seeks to develop competences for entrepreneurship in students of professional technical secondary education in Chile, a group of professors from four professional technical colleges, coming from both the technical specialties (differentiated training) and the subjects of Common plan (general education), have had the challenge of being the pioneers in teaching in the entrepreneurship module to students who start in professional technical media education, as well as to those who are in their senior year.

In this context, the following study investigates the experience of teachers in the first six months of the year with the new module. Through a qualitative approach, a set of experiences is reconstructed that provide valuable information to face the challenges that both teachers, institutions and educational communities imply bringing the world of entrepreneurship to young people in this formative stage.
