YO. NATIONAL TRAINING PROGRAM (PNF) IN MECHANICS.

The PNF of Mechanics is the set of academic activities leading to professional certifications and the
granting of the titles of Higher University Technician or Higher University Technician in Mechanics
and Mechanical Engineering or Mechanical Engineer, as well as the degree of Specialist in related
areas.
This PNF responds to the resolution issued by the citizen President of the Bolivarian Republic of
Venezuela through the Official Gazette No. 38,930 published on May 14, 2008 regarding the
regulations on national university training programs, which establishes in its article 1 that “…national
university training programs are defined as those studies and academic activities leading to titles,
degrees or certifications of higher education taught and accredited in different areas of the national
territory…”. Furthermore, “… the National Training Programs will have as common characteristics:
humanistic training with links to communities and professional practice developed in educational
environments, characterized by free expression and debate of ideas, respect, diversity and
integration of the participants…” (Art. 3 of the Official Gazette No. 38,930 promulgated on May 14,
2008).
Based on this legal framework; The PNF in Mechanics responds to the transformation process that
Venezuelan society is currently experiencing, where mechanical technology must be applied to
improve the quality of life of the country's communities, in terms of job creation, production of goods
and services. , respecting and guaranteeing the preservation of the health of the individual and the
environment for future generations. Promoting and strengthening the socialist production model that
generates goods and services, linked to mechanical technology in accordance with the needs and
potential of the communities, framed and articulated with the Economic and Social Development plan
of the Nation 2007 – 2013.
The satisfaction of such expectations must be assumed and shared by different social factors, with
University Education institutions having a relevant role, since among the functions that the State and
Society have assigned to them are the generation, development and transfer of knowledge and the
training of professionals with a deep sense of ethics, autonomous, critical, reflective citizens,
researchers, committed, involved, with the national transformation with solid knowledge in the area of
Mechanics and in socio-political training, ecological awareness, with a willingness to work,
collaborative, act to design, evaluate, formulate projects to meet local, regional, national and
international needs with the countries in accordance with the nation's plans.
PNF in Mechanics
In recent decades, industrial processes have changed rapidly, where communities have been forced
to organize, generating a change in the nature of both manufacturing processes and public and
private services. These changes have impacted the way of thinking and acting of our society
regarding the development of industry and community services. The concepts used today are more
complex and cover a broader environment. Given this reality, the role of the TSU and Mechanical
Engineer becomes a fundamental piece to satisfy the needs of the communities.
It is important to highlight that the PNF in Mechanics is presented as a flexible program that allows
establishing strong and lasting alliances with the national industry, regional communities and with
other nations, in accordance with what is reflected in the Simón Bolívar National Project 2007 - 2013,
allowing direct the effort towards the true institutionality and articulation of Higher Education
Institutions (HEIs) with the national productive sector, with an innovative vision and mission,
strengthening and accelerating the endogenous development of the nation by incorporating TSUs
and Engineers into the productive process in core areas of the economy.
MISSION
Train integral citizens with ethical, humanistic, ecological principles and values and social sensitivity,
with mastery in science and technology for the coordination, planning, programming, execution,
direction, control and supervision of human, financial and material resources during the professional
management of the assets of productive systems, with efficiency for the benefit of the entire society
and the recomposition of social forces, improving the quality of life of communities, adjusting to the
transformation derived from innovation in learning, within the framework of the country project
contained in the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
VISION
To be the academic training program of national and international reference, in the Mechanical area,
that contributes to the sustainable endogenous development of the country by consolidating the
various productive and service sectors, through the training of integral human beings, with values and
principles of the socialist society of the 21st century, adjusting to the transformation derived from
innovation in learning, within the framework of the country project in pursuit of supreme social
happiness.
II. PNF IN MECHANICS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE ALMA MATER MISSION.
PNF in Mechanics
The PNF in Mechanics is part of the Alma Mater Mission as it constitutes a new academic model
committed to the universalization of University Education, inclusion and social transformation, linking
the processes of training, research and technological development with the strategic projects of the
Nation. , aimed at political, technological, economic, social and cultural sovereignty. All this with the
supreme objective of the liberation of human beings and the eradication of all forms of oppression,
exploitation and exclusion.
This PNF is designed under the parameters and criteria that support the actions of teaching,
research, production and the socio-educational linkage of the Polytechnic University :
a. Comprehensiveness, for a holistic training that promotes sustainable human development,
with a harmonious balance in scientific, technological and humanistic training, providing them
with qualities of high human significance, capable of understanding the need to put their
knowledge at the service of society instead. to use it only for your personal benefit.
b. Relevance, due to the institution's commitment to offering a curriculum to respond to the
demands of local, regional and national development and the social demand for new
professional training opportunities.

PNF in Mechanics
Objectives of the Alma Mater Mission

1.Develop and transform Higher Education based on the strengthening of popular power and the
construction of a socialist society.
2.Guarantee the participation of everyone in the generation, transformation and dissemination of
knowledge.
3.Reclaim the humanistic character of university education as a space for the realization and
construction of human beings in their fullness, in recognition of their culture, their environment, their
relevance to humanity and their capacity for the creation of the new and the transformation of the
existing.
4.Strengthen a new academic model committed to inclusion and social transformation.
5.Link the training, research and technological development processes with the Nation's strategic
projects aimed at political, technological, economic, social and cultural sovereignty.
6.Root Higher Education throughout the national territory, in close ties with the communities.
7.Promote the articulation of the Venezuelan Higher Education system, under principles of solidarity
cooperation.
8.Promote Higher Education as a space for Latin American and Caribbean unity and solidarity and
cooperation with the people of the world.
Consequently, a strong commitment has been established with the Alma Mater Mission, to develop a
program that responds to the transformation of Education in this area, strengthening popular power
and the construction of a socialist society.
In this sense, the PNF in Mechanics contributes to generating a new vision of Venezuelan
University Education , through socio-community and productive research projects, institutional
solidarity cooperation, aimed at: developing and transforming Higher Education based on
strengthening the popular power and the construction of a society of equals where the commitment is
to train citizens capable of developing technologies that allow the endogenous development of the
country but with a more human and supportive purpose. Whose intention is to promote the formation
of the new citizen, with creative, transformative autonomy, with revolutionary ideas, as well as an
entrepreneurial attitude to implement solutions in endogenous transformation in the social-community
context.
Consequently, the PNF in Mechanics develops strategies so that he and the participant appropriate
methods and procedures that can be used from the theories, laws and properties studied to apply
PNF in Mechanics
them in the solution of new scientific, technical, economic and social problems. from critical reflection.
Furthermore, it must foster processes that occur collectively, that promote interaction, discussion,
controversy and the coincidence of meanings; all of this, to achieve the configuration of a new social
being, knowledgeable and committed to his sociocultural environment, co-responsible and leading in
the diagnosis and solution of his community's problems through collective creation.
This implies the development of values, attitudes and virtues typical of full democracy, linked to the
values of emotional relationships marked by cooperation and solidarity, using as the main strategy to
promote them, in addition to dialectics, critical reflection and dialogue, voluntary work, maximum
expression of social awareness.
In summary, taking as a basis the forms of property that constitute the current socio-productive
structure of the country, with the exception of social property, and taking into account the indicative
elements in the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela in its articles 70, 118 , 184 and
308. It is possible to determine that in this phase of the transition to socialism, the Venezuelan
economic system will be made up of three large areas: the private economy, the popular economy
and the social economy.
In this sense, the PNF in Mechanics will represent a transcendental step in the development of the
area of social economy, as well as in the evolution of the technical-scientific “know-how” of the social
sciences, which results in the transformation of the forms and content of work, research and
administration. Therefore, the program is responsible for such evolutions (in its form and content),
which requires training creative and multidisciplinary professionals to provide solutions to today's
problems based on satisfying the needs of the people.
III.-Link of the PNF in Mechanics with the Economic and Social Development Project of the
Nation 2007 – 2013.
He Simón Bolívar National Project formulates among its objectives the development of the new
endogenous productive model as the economic basis of 21st century socialism and to achieve
sustained development, the increase in food sovereignty and the consolidation of food security, the
consolidation of Venezuela as a world energy power, the development of the basic non-energy
industry, manufacturing and basic services, objectives for which high-level training combined with the

III.2.- LINKAGE OF THE PNF IN MECHANICS WITH THE BOLIVARIAN CONSTITUTION OF

VENEZUELA.
The ideological and symbolic meaning, as one of its foundations the thought of Simón Bolívar and the
example of the aboriginal peoples. It makes explicit the Refoundation of the Republic and its
PNF in Mechanics
multiethnic and multicultural character. It declares Latin American integration as a fundamental

objective. In his article No. 1. “The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela is irrevocably free and
independent and bases its moral heritage and its values of freedom, dignity, justice and international
peace on the doctrine of Simón Bolívar, the Liberator. “Independence, freedom, sovereignty,
immunity, territorial integrity and national self-determination are inalienable rights of the Nation.”
From this point of view, the PNF in Mechanics establishes strategies to strengthen science and
technology at the service of the economic and social development of the nation, promoting the
mastery and management of acquired technologies, increasing access to knowledge and its
appropriation, for the development of basic industries, manufacturing and services, guaranteeing the
solutions that society demands, achieving our technological sovereignty.
Likewise, our constitution in its Articles 102, 103, 104 and 105, establishes education as a human
right based on equality and equity with the purpose of developing the creative potential of each
human being, based on the ethical valuation of the work and active participation in the processes of
social transformation mainly consubstantiated with the values of national identity.
Article 102: Education is a right and a fundamental social duty, it is democratic, free and obligatory.
The State will assume it as an unavoidable function of maximum interest at all its levels and
modalities, and as an instrument of scientific, humanistic and technological knowledge at the service
of society. Education is a public service and is based on respect for all currents of thought, with the
purpose of developing the creative potential of each human being and the full exercise of their
personality in a democratic society based on the ethical valuation of work and in active, conscious
and supportive participation in the processes of social transformation consubstantiated with the
values of national identity, and with a Latin American and universal vision. The State, with the
participation of families and society, will promote the process of citizen education in accordance with
the principles contained in this Constitution and the law. The use of higher education as an instrument
to bring together scientific knowledge and knowledge of popular wisdom to improve the processes of
conservation and maintenance of physical assets.
Article 103: Every person has the right to a comprehensive education, with quality conditions and
opportunities, with no limitations other than those derived from their abilities, vocation and aspirations.
PNF in Mechanics
Education is mandatory at all levels, from kindergarten to diversified secondary level. That taught in
State institutions is free up to university undergraduate. To this end, the state will make a priority
investment, in accordance with the recommendations of the United Nations Organization. The State
will create and sustain institutions and services sufficiently equipped to ensure access, permanence
and completion in the educational system. The Law will guarantee equal attention to people with
special needs or disabilities and to those who are deprived of their liberty or lack basic conditions for
their incorporation and permanence in the educational system. Contributions from individuals to
public educational projects and programs at the secondary and university levels will be recognized as
without income tax levies, according to the respective law.
Article 104: Education will be provided by people of recognized morality and proven academic
suitability. The State will encourage their permanent updating and will guarantee stability in the
exercise of their teaching career, whether public or private, in accordance with this Constitution and
the Law, in a work regime and standard of living in accordance with their high mission. Entry,
promotion and permanence in the educational system will be established by Law and will respond to
merit evaluation criteria, without partisan or other non-academic inherence.
Article 105: The law will determine the professions that require a degree and the conditions that must
be met to practice them, including membership.
Within this context, the PNF in Mechanics must promote changes in production models, taking
advantage of the strengths of each region, creating synergy between them, transferring technologies
to other productive sectors to achieve a sustainable production and accumulation model, acquiring
technology and adapting it to the environment, to turn the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela into a
technological power.
IV.-. CHALLENGES LINKED TO THE PNF IN MECHANICS.
The PNF in Mechanics is in congruence with the approaches on general undergraduate,

postgraduate and research policies of the polytechnic universities in science and technology
established in the Alma Mater mission, proposing:
• Train a comprehensive professional with deep-rooted human values and socio-historical awareness.
PNF in Mechanics
• Use mechanical technologies to improve the quality of life in the country's communities, in terms of
job creation, production of goods and services, respecting and preserving the health of the individual
and the environment.
• Promote and strengthen cooperativism, the small and medium-sized industry that produces goods
and services, linked to mechanical technology in accordance with the needs and potential of the
municipalities, framed and articulated with the sustainable development plans of the region and the
nation.
• Promote technological development that reduces the dependency that currently affects the nation in
the production of goods and provision of services related to the area of mechanics to satisfy the
needs and expectations of the country.
• Plan technological development in the field of mechanics for the transformation of raw materials,
taking advantage of our potential, towards continuous improvement in the production of goods and
the provision of services, preserving the environment to satisfy our needs and those of others.
nations.
PNF in Mechanics
V.- SITUATION OF TRAINING IN THE AREA OF MECHANICS.

In Venezuela, it is observed that the adoption of mechanical technology in the industrial sector has
been limited and fundamentally oriented towards dependency, which has turned the national
industrial park into a non-competitive sector with few possibilities for expansion.
Furthermore, the inefficient management of technological assets in the industrial sector has produced
a tendency towards the almost exclusive use of corrective maintenance, as opposed to the use of
preventive maintenance, the latter generating greater availability and efficiency in the use of such
assets.
The current training programs in the area of Mechanics of traditional institutions have been limited to
training professionals to be employees and not entrepreneurs, the production of goods and services
of these professionals is scarce, the training system is largely theoretical and Consequently, they are
disjointed from the real needs of both the productive sector and the community.
As an example, we can cite the Agricultural sector, which depends in a high percentage on imports,
particularly on machinery, implements, equipment and spare parts, such as tractors, harvesters,
seeders, injection pumps, engines, gearboxes, among others. There are lots of machinery, equipment
and agricultural implements in an advanced state of deterioration where it is evident that there is no
national metalworking industry capable of reproducing or recovering this type of machinery, therefore
there is a need to acquire imported machinery.
On the other hand, the recent implementation of alternative transportation systems such as the
Trolleybus, Metro, Railway and the installation of automobile and tractor assembly plants in the
country will demand professionals in the area of mechanics for their implementation and correct
operation.
According to the objectives outlined in the nation's plans, qualified personnel are required to be
incorporated into the strategic lines of social production companies in the sectors: health, naval, food,
steel, telecommunications, petrochemicals, military and oil, among other.
The technological development for the transformation of energy is generating deterioration to the
environment, either from the burning of hydrocarbons or from the emanation of toxic gases,
management of solid waste and polluting liquids, generated by carrying out productive activities.
Consequently, research and development of alternative technologies that preserve the environment
and the health of the collective is necessary.
Consequently, various debates linked to the PNF in Mechanics have been generated:
PNF in Mechanics
 Selective import substitution

 Development of new sustainable energy alternatives
 New solid waste treatment methods.
 Improvement of maintenance systems
 Development of equipment and instructional materials for education
 Articulation of the mechanics training program with the country's productive sector.
 Entrepreneur training
 Use and management of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in university
education in the sector.
 Research and development of design, manufacturing and maintenance in the areas of:
biomechanics, mechatronics, energy, materials, renewable energy, transportation, thermofluids and
agricultural technology.
Venezuelan State Plans

 Economic and Social Development Plan of the Nation 2007 – 2013.
 National railway development plan.
 Plan to enhance and increase hydrocarbon production capacity.
 Free natural gas industry development plan.
 Oil planting plan.
Laws and Regulations

 Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
 Organic Labor Law.
 Organic Law on Protection, Working Conditions and Environment (LOPCYMAT).
 LOCTI.
 Regulations of the IUT and CU of Venezuela.
 MPPES Organic Regulations.

VIII. INTEGRATION WITH MISSION SUCRE.

The PNF in Mechanics is based on the guidelines of the Alma Mater Mission of the Ministry of
Popular Power for Higher Education.
Its connection is fundamentally due to the fact that this program, like the programs created for the
Antonio José de Sucre Plan executed through the Sucre Mission, transcends the academic field,
interacting with the social, cultural, economic, and political environment in which the participants
operate. as managers of the transformation, through a collective and cooperative learning process,
creating spaces for their integral development with a high level of commitment to the processes of
said transformation.
In this sense, it seeks the contribution of all actors in the Higher Education system, to generate a
synergy between them and the community, allowing comprehensive human development as an axis
for the construction of a socialist society, where the dialogue of knowledge is manifested.
PNF in Mechanics
This integration is harmonized with a curricular design that promotes research, training, production
and shared use of different educational resources, through the different study modalities. Likewise, it
promotes a unique, open, flexible, dynamic and innovative curriculum that develops study plans and
methodologies in line with the country's strategic lines of development.
This program also allows the consolidation of the municipalization of education at the regional and
local level, thus responding to the needs of human talent in the area of mechanics in order to
strengthen the productive and social development of the country.
IX. NATIONAL, REGIONAL AND LOCAL AGENCIES WITH WHICH THE PROGRAM IS LINKED:
The PNF in Mechanics due to its link with the specific plans of the nation and the policies of all
governmental and non-governmental entities, with the productive and service sector in general, as an
example we have the projects that the petrochemical industry is going to develop in the period 2008 –
2013; the increase in production capacity planned in PEQUIVEN, the investment plans of PDVSA and
basic industries of Guayana, the investments planned in the area of electricity generation, the
national railway plan, and the diversity of development plans in the public sector industry and private;
which would turn Venezuela into a global industrial power that serves as a base to promote its
scientific and technological development, in order to contribute to the transformation of the national
productive model into a socialist model.
X: INTEGRATION OF THE PROCESSES OF COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING, INTELLECTUAL

CREATION AND SOCIAL LINKAGE
The PNF in Mechanics aims to improve our mastery of industrial technologies and above all to
implement the import substitution plan in all sectors of the national economy. Since at the present
time the national government, in compliance with the “Simón Bolívar National Project. First Socialist
Plan", which dictates the guidelines for the economic and social development of the nation 2007-
2013, makes large investments in the modernization of its physical assets in strategic sectors for its
development, such as: health, construction, electricity, transportation, heavy and light industry,
agribusiness, communications, and others of national interest; This provision must be accompanied
by strategic management, which would allow the incorporation of the student in these training areas
and integrate them into the social and economic development needs of the country.
PNF in Mechanics
XI. PROJECT AS A CENTRAL TRAINING STRATEGY

The project will constitute the central training strategy, becoming an integrating axis that organizes
professional practice, research and the integration of knowledge with the community.
Tobón (2006) defines it as “…an integrated work plan… whose objective is to carry out a set of
actions framed in real life…” that integrate the students, the teacher and the community to execute it.
For this reason, it must be flexible, dynamic and relevant to endogenous, local, regional, and national
development. Consequently, project work transcends the principles of active pedagogy, since it is not
only about doing and solving problems, but also about understanding the context and generating new
knowledge.

XXI.- APPROACH TO CURRICULAR DESIGN.

In the Constituent Document of the Polytechnic University, training is conceived within the humanist -
social - dialectical approach, which recognizes the human condition in permanent interaction with its
environment, recognized as part of the ecosystem, which promotes the values of solidarity,
cooperation, equality , justice and commitment to the liberation of the human being and the
eradication of all forms of oppression, exploitation and exclusion, capable of exercising democratic
sovereignty, solidarity, through collective construction and transformative professional action, of free
expression, where the debate of ideas, respect for diversity, with responsibility and socialist ethics.
For this reason, the PNF in Mechanics must be closely linked to the development plans and projects
of the nation, the region, the state, the municipality, the localities, committed to this development and
generating knowledge, through training. and research linked to the real needs of the new economic,
social, and political reality of Venezuela, with an integrationist and collaborative vision with the Latin
American and Caribbean space.
The curricular approach used in the construction of the PNF in Mechanics is humanist-social and
dialectical, where the rationalities of complex thinking, the dialogue of knowledge, and the curricular
design converge, and must remain focused on comprehensive training, whose pedagogical action
becomes viable. through the development of a contextualized project, which means “in”, “for” and
“with” the context, with a view to strengthening knowledge, producing innovations and thus
contributing to the construction of a new society: supportive, sustainable and more human.
This social and dialectical humanistic approach is focused on integrated and integrative learning,
conceived as a set of knowledge and values required by human beings to be part of a group, with a
view to their leading participation in the development of the country.
• To understand what underlies the conception of a curriculum based on the social and
dialectical humanistic approach, we begin by recognizing the need to assume a different form
of organization of the political economy of the world, in relation to the logic of capitalism.
Capitalism organized its economic life on the law of accumulation and everything that does not
contribute to accumulation does not enter into its calculations. Likewise, the well-being of the
people enters the economic and market calculation, only as profit and the possibility of
accumulation. This logic is what has caused the destruction of nature and the social
destruction of millions of people.
PNF in Mechanics
• In this sense, the conception of the curriculum is one of research processes, which proposes
learning as a process (action – reflection – action) with constructive social interaction, which
promotes the encounter of knowledge between the actors of the community social fact; This
covers all related learning experiences such as: knowing – conceptual content, doing –
Procedural, living together – Attitudinal, to form the Social Being.
• It is necessary that the curricular approach be under a comprehensive humanist profile,
referring to the formation of a being capable of living and coexisting in harmony, overcoming
the practices of capitalism as a result of its own logic, not simply trying to humanize its
practices, in order to thus be participants and protagonists in the collective exercise of the
construction of an inclusive, equitable and fair social structure, supported by a teaching and
learning process, which allows their participation in local, regional, national, Latin American
and regional development. Caribbean.
• In light of the above, what gives meaning to an argument and dialogue is not the defense of
particular interests, but of the universalist interests that we could all assume as the main
element in the recognition of the other as a valid and fundamental interlocutor for the
construction of a pluralistic society with a set of values and principles that can be universalized
because they develop and launch the humanizing force that turns men and women into fair,
supportive and happy citizens.
Within this context, curriculum development is based on the following curricular principles:
Comprehensiveness
This principle is based on the holistic conception of the being as a person with diverse characteristics,
potentialities and needs, varied dynamics, with socio-historical and deontological commitment, in
close relationship with different contexts that contribute to its formation. In this sense, the Curriculum
will promote an education that stimulates their development in a balanced way to achieve a full and
integrated work, personal, social life, coherent, responsible in their actions, that generates responses
to the problems of their environment, for a social welfare.
Relevance
From its comprehensive conception, it explains the relationship between the Institutional Educational
Project and the curricular practice with society, in order to meet its demands in a specific historical
PNF in Mechanics
context; Therefore, relevance assumes different names according to the nature of the binding object:
cultural, economic, pedagogical, conceptual epistemological, teleological relevance, among others.
Universalization.
As a continuous process of transformations, aimed at expanding the possibilities and opportunities of

access to the university, without any type of discrimination, which contributes to the formation of a
comprehensive general culture of the population and a sustained increase in equity and social justice.
Quality.
Principle of permanent renewal that addresses the achievement of comprehensive training, based on
the pillars of education, with efficiency and effectiveness, with criteria of relevance, flexibility,
assertiveness, creativity, resourcefulness and innovation to achieve the mission of the Alma Mater
Project.
Interdisciplinarity.
It involves the formation of groups, both intra- and extra-institutional, of professionals from various
areas, which would allow a greater extension of the knowledge that must be handled when analyzing
different situations. Its inclusion in the curriculum will allow us to appreciate the benefits of common
objectives, as well as the development of convictions... "about the advantages of shared work and the
significance of the contributions of different areas of knowledge." (CNC, 1997) and reach an
understanding of the need to transdisciplinary.
Transdisciplinarity.
It involves the crossing of disciplinary boundaries, as a requirement for understanding the objects of
knowledge that do not belong to the absolute domain of a discipline. In this sense, it addresses and
overcomes conceptual limits, opening spaces for the unprecedented, the unexpected, the increasing,
the unexplored, the suppressed and in general for the profound experience of novelty. These spaces
are characterized by openness, freedom, dialogue, encounter, and understanding for the construction
of knowledge.
Transversality.
The transversality is expressed in the pedagogical, in the concretion of the values as a conviction, as
a practice of oneself, it is to make the axiological the guide that guides the thinking-acting of
individuals. These values emerge, are expressed, in the exercise of a pedagogical practice that is
PNF in Mechanics
based on freedom, dialogue, discussion as forms of constitution of an ethic, a deeply humanizing

morality.
Complexity.
It is a cultural confirmation of the present in the field of practices, knowledge and, above all, thought.
It allows us to understand the training process as a practice that has to interact with the diverse, the
different, the heterogeneous, the chaos, the rupture, the uncertainty, the crisis. It involves critical and
creative thinking that delves into the cognitive and affective dimension of life processes, allowing
human beings a global and integrative vision of their needs and intelligence.
Flexibility.
The education offered, as Barreto (1998) points out, must be evaluated and reoriented towards a
permanent flexibility of the study plans, adjusting its contents and teachings according to the way life
in society, knowledge and training change, seeking the elevation of the cultural level of the
population.
The aim is to open up to different training modalities such as: face-to-face, blended, distance and
non-conventional education. Likewise, incorporate the proposal of shared studies and multi-
institutional studies, which allow the permanence and continuation of the participants in the
educational subsystem.
Sense of Purpose and Significance of Training.
The purpose of the PNF-Mechanics is to have a transcendent meaning, beyond the specialization
and professionalization established by the market. It is not about training for a job. Training is
intended for the comprehensive development of people and social transformation. That is, citizens
linked to the problems, needs and demands of the country, co-responsible for national progress,
sustainable and sustainable development, with the capacity to undertake and build their own spaces
for incorporation into social and productive life, trained for the construction of citizenship, the
consolidation of participatory democracy and national sovereignty.
Ecopedagogical.
From which come premises such as thinking about the human condition from its complexity,
proposing training aimed at the exercise of citizenship committed to the great Latin American
homeland and to all of humanity, that is, planet Earth as the homeland of humanity.

XX.- CHARACTERISTICS OF EDUCATIONAL PRACTICES
The PNF curriculum in Mechanics will be developed through Learning Projects, through conceptual,
procedural and attitudinal content, with transversal axes and under an interdisciplinary and
transdisciplinary vision for the development of human capabilities in knowing, doing, living and being.
Hence, the proposal from Transformative Critical Theory, which allows the training of teachers;
reflective critics with cognitive autonomy, and committed to the transformation processes that today's
Venezuela demands, in the construction and development of curricula, which implies, among other
things, being aware that teaching relations are social relations, not power relations, which Their
practices allow or favor the construction of appreciation and respect for humanity, leading
participation, surpassing instrumental and technological training.
In this way, the organization of teachers in interdisciplinary collective structures is favored, in order to
plan and build relevant pedagogical strategies with learning projects, for the comprehensive training
of the student that enables them to transform their reality, among these strategies are suggest:
 Learning as a process that is built in a social, community and cooperation context that goes
through the diagnosis of the contexts.
 Consider the prior knowledge of the participants through the diagnosis of the entry profile.
 Organize the contents of the different learning areas, based on the significant problems diagnosed
in the contexts for the formulation of the learning project, to contribute to the development of the
profile in each of the students.
 Build the Action Plan that the group considers relevant to resolve the problem.
 Execution of the Action Plan, both in the work and community context, is subject to the support
and mediation of the teacher; implying, in turn, the interaction of all the actors or those involved in
the project.
 Organization of the progress of the Action Plan in order to systematize the experiences.
 Discussion of experiences in order to contrast them with theoretical learning.
 Socialization of the results of the learning project, privileging the local vision as a significant
learning scenario in a space to disseminate new knowledge, through communication strategies.
XXVII.- INITIAL JOURNEY.
PNF in Mechanics
It is a period of integration with the training program and the student's understanding of the
conception, function and responsibility of the Polytechnic University (UP). This journey lasts one
quarter and is made up of a set of strategic activities that allow the student to actively integrate into
the University.
The PNF in Mechanics begins with a period of twelve (12) weeks called the Initial Course. Where
the applicant to enter the PNF in Mechanics receives leveling training, promoted by programs that
allow the articulation of content, development of cognitive abilities, abilities, skills and attitudes that
contribute to the success of the participants in their transit through the PNF. .
Likewise, a path called “Introduction to Engineering” is proposed, where two (2) permanent
workshops and a total of three (3) curricular units are proposed with the purpose of achieving the
integration and continuity of the TSU in the pursuit of obtaining the title of Mechanical Engineer.
XXVIII.- AXES OF TRAINING .

Alma Mater Mission, which are described below.
Epistemological-Heuristic: It is structured by a set of content and training practices that constitute:
 The way in which knowledge is produced from the perspective of rationality that supports the way
in which statements are presented and their historical character.
 The links between research and the ethical, cultural, educational, epistemological and
methodological changes that represent the social transformation of Venezuela.
 Construction of knowledge, what it is and how knowledge is produced for critical reflection.
Socio-Cultural-Economic-Historical-Ethical-Political : It constitutes a multidimensional curricular

space in which contents and training practices associated with the fields of knowledge, historical,
socio-cultural, ethical and political converge with undoubted value for comprehensive training. .
. Professional: It constitutes a set of contents and training practices that have as basic thematic
cores, those that are defined as foundations for the professional's practice in their performance.
PNF in Mechanics
Aesthetic-Leisure : It constitutes the curricular space for the training of the student and the
development of creativity, imagination and sensitivity, promoting attitudes and interests towards art,
sports and other areas of concern.

professional practice and the environment.
The proposed transversal axes are:
 Language as an Expression of Freedom.
 Citizen Training and National Identity.
 Computing.
 Languages.
 Socio-Community Training.
 Preservation of the Environment and Health.
Hence, the proposal from Transformative Critical Theory, which allows the training of professionals;
Reflective critics with cognitive autonomy, and committed to the transformation processes that today's
Venezuela demands, in the construction and development of curricula, which implies, among other
things, being aware that teaching relations are social relations, not power relations, which Their
practices allow or favor the construction of appreciation and respect for humanity, leading
participation, surpassing instrumental and technological training.
XXIX.- TYPES OF COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING UNITS.

reporting of results that take into account existing social realities are defined. That it be applied
permanently and continuously in order to establish mechanisms for its permanent updating and
rearrangement.
Considering evaluation as a continuous, cyclical, dynamic, reflective, systematic, inclusive, action-
PNF in Mechanics
research- flexible, participatory, comprehensive and integrated process that will allow the assessment
of achievements in the multiple curricular dimensions at different times, in order to guide the decision
making based on the mission of the Polytechnic University .
This will be developed as a cumulative, comprehensive, permanent, cooperative and ethical process,
based on different forms of evaluation, such as: the evaluation of intervening actors (the teacher, the
group, the community, among others) and self-evaluation, with The goal is for participants to become
aware of their own learning process.
The references for the evaluation of the participants in the training process will be previously
determined, but they may also be built from participation, creativity, and the process of conceptual
negotiation that derive from significant processes of university life.
Some basic guiding elements.

 Consider individual differences and potentialities, as well as prior knowledge of each student, to
establish levels of educational progress.
 Emphasize the diagnostic and training functions of the evaluation, assuming summative
evaluation for the certification of evidence of achievements or results to recognize certain
knowledge, referred to in the profile, in the demands of the environment and the requirements of
society.
 Transformational processes must take shape in the use of various strategies according to the
nature of learning.
 Assume the permanent integration of the evaluation process with learning.
 The purpose of the evaluation is strengthened by relying on a validation system referring to the
construct of knowledge, the training process, its consequences (meta - evaluation or evaluation of
the evaluation) and the reliability of the results generated by the curricular proposal.
 The role of teachers entails the responsibility of directly influencing the curriculum in which action
is framed, in providing elements and criteria that promote a culture of self-assessment in their
students and of course, the shared social responsibility that corresponds. who is endorsed by a
certification on the quality of the knowledge with which he has contributed to its consolidation.
XXXI.- STUDY PLAN
PNF in Mechanics
The PNF in Mechanics is organized under an annual regime administered quarterly, based on the
duration of the academic activities provided for in the study plan and that contribute to the student's
training, intellectual creation or production of knowledge and its connection and insertion. socio-labor
and socio-community.
The academic activities provided for in the PNF curriculum in Mechanics include seven (7) Training
Axes that are developed throughout the entire TSU training and throughout the entire engineering
training.
The PNF in Mechanics consists of a central curricular unit that is socio-integrative projects. These
Socio-Integrative Projects constitute the central axis of training and are developed throughout the
PNF in Mechanics. They have a socio-community nature with the purpose of responding to or solving
specific problems at the local, regional or national level.
The curriculum is completed with training units developed through various learning strategies and
methodologies, including workshops and seminars , sports, artistic and recreational activities,
and language learning (English, sign language, others) that form part of the transverse axes named
below:
The proposed transversal axes are:
 Language as an Expression of Freedom.
 Citizen Training and National Identity.
 Computing.
 Languages.
 Socio-Community Training.
 Preservation of the Environment and Health.

The PNF-Mecanica begins with a period of twelve (12) weeks called Initial Course and continues with
four periods of one (1) year each, called, respectively, Course I, Course II, Course III and Course IV.
The academic activities associated with the Socio-Integrative Project and Socio-cultural-
Economic-Historical-Ethical-Political Training axes are distributed along each route.
Certification and qualifications
PNF in Mechanics
Once Course I is completed, the academic and academic-administrative requirements established for
this purpose have been met and the learning acquired or developed up to that point has been
demonstrated, the student will be eligible for a certification as a Mechanical Draftsman.
Likewise, once courses I and II have been completed, and all the academic and academic-
administrative requirements established for this purpose have been met, the student will obtain the
TSU degree in Mechanics.
For its part, once the title of Higher University Technician has been obtained, courses III and IV have
been completed, and the academic and academic-administrative requirements established for this
purpose have been met, the student will obtain the title of Mechanical Engineer.
The table of the PNF-Mechanics study plan is detailed below. In this table the acronyms HTE, UC
and TOTAL HTE appear, with the following meaning:
HTE: Student Work Hours; It is equivalent to the total hours that the student requires to master
learning. The HTE are made up of the Accompanied Student Work Hours (HTEA) and the
Independent Student Work Hours (HTEI). HTEAs involve carrying out training activities with
the supervision or direct assistance of the teacher. For their part, HTAEI involve carrying out
training activities without the supervision or direct assistance of the teacher; This does not
rule out the possibility of eventual assistance from the teacher or consultation of the
students to clarify doubts regarding information, procedures or similar. It is estimated that
the student requires investing between one (1) and one and a half (1.5) HTAEI for each
HTEA.
UC (Credit Units): Relative value of an academic activity calculated based on the total HTE that the
student invests to master learning. One (1) Credit Unit is assigned for between twenty-five
(20) and thirty (30) HTE.
TOTAL HTE: Sum of the HTE of the different academic activities developed in the study plan in
each path.
XXXII.- PROFESSOR PROFILE.
