Innovating with teleworking in practical training

Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies are not being exploited in such an updated world, the entrepreneur
has not entered the wavelength of technologies to make the most of the human resource that allows him to
obtain greater profits for the organization, and this is why this research has identified that Teleworking has not
yet been implemented in a decisive way regarding SENA apprentices, preventing the evolution of training in this
innovation dynamic.
These technologies allow the interaction of cultures, the creation of new knowledge and the sharing of experiences
that bring different people closer together in any part of the world, through different means of learning that are
reachable in this technological era.
Teleworking as a form of work organization is an inclusive alternative that ratifies flexible inclusion in the
workplace, which is why this research wants to show the results on: ¿Why companies have not taken the decision
to include Teleworking with SENA apprentices? with the sole purpose of exhorting employers to take the risk in
using new forms of work that can bring benefits for the parties.
The methodology used for this research was descriptive-qualitative, which allows to know the characteristics of a
sample before a specific situation, for the collection of data, online surveys and in-depth expert interviews were
carried out.
Finally, the main factors that must be worked by educational institutions, companies and responsible entities
for the promotion of Teleworking in Colombia are shown, as well as, alternatives are proposed to achieve
the implementation of Teleworking safely within the Learning Contract, generating innovation in both the
apprentice’s practical training and the administrative processes of the companies.
