ESTRATEGIAS DE APRENDIZAJE PARA LA EMPLEABILIDAD EN EL MERCADO DEL TRABAJO DE PROFESIONALES RECIÉN EGRESADOS.

Transformations of the working world implies the diminishment of structural employment and consolidation of other forms of work with psycho-sociological implications for employability. The research explores learning strategies of professionals (successes and control) and employers facilitate employability at 5 Colombian cities. In depth interviews were used. Results show that learning strategies are not necessarily consciousness. Successful professionals use Cognitive strategies of elaboration and transference; relational strategies for visibility and promoting knowledge in inter-relation; and meta-cognitive strategies of regulation in this order. Control group professionals use cognitive-elaboration and transference strategies without converting them into behaviors. Employers stressed the use of cognitive strategies of elaboration, metacognitives of regulation, relational visibility and the establishment of relations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
