The objective of this research was to determine the training requirements under competence profi les for the teaching staff that executes the Lead Programs in the Department of Psychology and the Orientation Center of the University of Zulia. The rationale was based on the competence approach. The work was done with a population census, composed of 34 subjects. The methodology was based on a non-experimental transectional design. The technique used was the observation, and the instrument was a questionnaire of sociometric scale. It was concluded that a) the teachers subjected to the research have more developed generic competences than the technical competences; b) they require training for the technical and generic competences; c) regarding the training strategies, it was observed a slight preference to the mode of individual work; d) in the strategies there was a higher predominance for the case study and self-evaluation, which are related with individual work.
