Training model of the Higher Technician in Agricultural Cooperative Management and Development professional

Abstract

In the updating of the Cuban Economic and Social Model, the development of the cooperative sector has remained among its strategic guidelines, with special attention to the agricultural cooperative sector. To strengthen and consolidate the management of agricultural cooperatives, the Ministry of Agriculture and other agencies are implementing 17 solutions to improve the management and development of agricultural cooperatives. Solution 9 is aimed at implementing a communication and education system that contributes to the promotion of the values and principles of cooperativism in Cuban society through the media and higher education institutions, the latter being essential for the development of actions aimed at implementing the solution. This article is based on the curricular design of a training model for the Higher Technician in Agricultural Cooperative Management and Development, as a methodological and organizational support for the cooperative training process, with a more coherent and comprehensive approach. To carry out the research, the dialectical-materialist method was assumed as the general method, which made possible the integration of theoretical methods such as the historical-logical, modeling, systemic-structural and empirical methods such as observation. Associated with these, the procedures of analysis and synthesis and induction and deduction were applied, as well as the documentary analysis technique. The main result offered lies in the foundation of the training model for professionals in this sector in a structured, sequenced, systemic and contextualized manner.
