Abstract
CERON-RINCON, Alejandra and LOPEZ-CORTES, David. Looking to renew the praxis in contemporary security: capabilities and training for competences. LogosCyT [online]. 2019, vol.11, n.3, pp.82-93. Epub Dec 28, 2019. ISSN 2145-594X. https://doi.org/10.22335/rlct.v11i3.978.
After the theoretical, conceptual and methodological review of the academic and practical approaches to security, the relevance of curricular contents and teaching methods is considered to be a reflective exercise within the Master's Degree in Direction and Management of Integral Security at the Colombian Air Force's Postgraduate School. Through the concept of skills coined by Amartya Sen and the educational approach by components, a diagnostic discussion is developed related to the improvement opportunities for the academic program to expand the theoretical and practical knowledge of the students according to their professional experiences and demands of contemporary security dynamics. From a consultation exercise to the members of the educational community involved, through surveys and interviews, the theoretical reflection on safety is combined with their current perceptions and expectations regarding work. It concludes with an open discussion about the need to expand the research component in order to increase the action capabilities of the students.
