Analysis
The professional practicum is covered under Colombian law stating that companies should
recognize students payment seventy-five percent (75%) of the positions held and must be
affiliated with an insurer of occupational hazards. Fundacion Universitaria Monserrate
should enforce this law when the contract with the companies receive the practitioners and
apply the rights of students of the institution is generated. On the other hand the practicum
agreement needs more regulation by the university administration and government, since this
law is only on paper but is not applied by companies.
Conclusions
The practicum, workouts or formative activities are a requirement to culminate their studies,
these activities are of several types according to their purposes and the level of formation.
Therefore, practicum should cover the General System of Labor Risks.
In the practicum specific skills should be developed in the student in a particular workplace,
these practicum has to familiarize students with the environment in which the student will
work after completing his or her studies.
