Description
Summary:Agricultural extension is the foundation of the support processes for the country's agricultural producers. Therefore, those who provide this service must be trained in the training programs defined by the National Apprenticeship Service through the National Training and Capacity Building Subsystem, in compliance with Law 1876 of the National Agricultural Innovation System. Based on this, the research aimed to evaluate the impact of three courses taught through the AgroSENA Strategy to 100 extension workers from 23 municipalities in Norte de Santander, Colombia. The project was developed under the Pre-experimental Research model, in which a stimulus is administered to a group and then a measurement is applied, which allows observing its effect on one or more variables, using a targeted intentional non-probability sampling. To evaluate the relevance of the training, the response scores obtained at two time points were compared: one before the stimulus and one after. The statistical test used was the t-student through the SPSS version 25 software. The results showed significant differences with a (p-value <5%) in relation to the average scores obtained in the initial test vs. the final test, for each of the three courses, the latter with higher scores, indicating that the training processes had an effect on the appropriation of knowledge by the extension apprentices.
