Abstract

This paper aims to give an account of the experience of participating in a virtual Training of Trainers course in Digital Communication and Collaboration Competence, applied to public officials from Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), originally prepared to be presented in a hybrid way and later adapted to be totally remote, due to the pandemic caused by COVID-19. The course is part of the Training Program for Trainers in Digital Competences coordinated by the Distance Education University (UNED) in association with the OEI-Panama and the Andrés Bello Agreement. Participating in this Program are: the San Juan Bosco National University of Patagonia (Argentina) and the Federal University of Santa Catarina (Brazil). The Program is part of the INTERCOONECTA Plan and is funded by the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID). To adapt the training to virtuality, this experience used Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as a methodology with the mediation of teachers and tutors in a virtual learning environment (VLE) developed in Moodle, duly structured to support the actions of courses of this nature. That said, the experience gained in the course indicates that education should take a different look at the application of models of this type. This is because it is one of the conditions for the participants in this course, the transmission of the knowledge obtained to other colleagues of the institution, thus being able to maximize and develop communication skills and digital collaboration of all those involved.
