Synthesis of the object and content of the expert session
Education is probably one of the occupational fields more exposed to cultural, political and administrative criteria. That factors provoke a remarkable diversity in certain occupations among different countries. For example :
- The occupational type ‘Post Secondary Education Teacher’ seems to be an existence very different
- In certain countries the profile of university professor includes reserch, and the only researchers are transverse to university and other institutions
- In certain countries, the occupational differences between teachers and managers of educational centres are little.
In the area of human resources, the profile of the technician (or medium-high professional), seems more clear that of the clerk. The information technologies have led to integrate many tasks that before demanded a great administrative work, and have made so easy the execution that they can be carried out by clerks or by technicians.
