Abstract

This article develops a part of the research entitled Rising competences in technical education by implementing dual system elements under El Salvador conditions in the field of Mechatronics. One of the main purpose of the research was to determine
if the students of cohort 2008-2010 who studied under the dual system acquired better professional competences to be inserted in the productive process than those who studied in a traditional system. The research compared students from cohort 2008–2010 in Mechatronics: one in dual and other in traditional system. The methodology applied was a combination of quantitative and qualitative method with questionnaires, interviews and measurements about competences, time to get a job and the salary conditions.
