This paper arises from the collaboration agreement between the General Secretariat of Universities (Ministry of Education) and the Pablo de Olavide University in Seville. It aims to discover opinions about the consistency between High School guidance, the welcome and assistance during University open days, and the ideal figure to provide students with diverse information. The project advocates the consolidation of tutorial action plans existing for pre-admission and First Grade students to university. We conclude that there is evidence of considerable student satisfaction regarding educational guidance received during the Upper Secondary Education and the positive assessment of university open days. However, guidance as to career choice is not as well regarded and University teaching staff is perceived as being best situated to offer quality information about academic and career opportunities. These considerations lead us to contemplate the need to continue and improve the inter-level coordination process and support this relationship in a pedagogical model of tutorial action. This model should be reflected in the implementation of a Tutorial Action System for each degree.

El estudio surge del convenio de colaboración entre el Secretariado General de Universidades del Ministerio de Educación y la Universidad Pablo de Olavide de Sevilla. Se pretende conocer las opiniones sobre la coherencia entre la orientación recibida durante la Educación Secundaria, la acogida y atención recibida durante las sesiones de puertas abiertas y la figura ideal para ofrecer diversa información al alumnado. El proyecto persigue la consolidación de Planes de acción tutorial ya existentes dirigidos a estudiantes de pre-ingreso a los estudios universitarios y de Primero de Grado. Se puede concluir la evidencia de una gran satisfacción del alumnado con respecto a la orientación educativa recibida durante la Educación Secundaria y la valoración positiva de las jornadas de puertas abiertas. No obstante, la orientación hacia la elección de la carrera no es tan valorada y se presenta al profesorado universitario como aquella figura capaz de ofrecer la mejor información académica y sobre salidas profesionales. Ello nos hace pensar en la necesidad de proseguir y mejorar el proceso de coordinación entre diferentes niveles de enseñanza y fundamentar esta relación en un modelo pedagógico de acción tutorial que debe reflejarse en la implantación de un Sistema de Acción Tutorial para cada Grado.ABSTRACTTutorial and guidance action in the transition period from High School to University.
