The results of the diagnosis made it possible to detect insufficiencies in the management process with respect to the development of professional pedagogical skills that is why strategic actions were developed, which were theoretically validated by the experts, who rated the strategic actions as very appropriate. This same category was assigned by users to denote the feasibility of their implementation. After the application of the strategic actions, higher levels of development of professional pedagogical skills were evident in the sample studied.
