The development of andragogy training enhances the competencies of university teachers. This study aimed to propose a training program in andragogy to improve teaching effectiveness at the university level. Using a quantitative methodology within a non-experimental design, the research included a sample of 193 teachers, using surveys and questionnaires as instruments. The results revealed that, in general, teaching competencies were at a moderate level, with particular emphasis on strategies that foster intrinsic motivation and opportunities for reflection, self-assessment, and evaluation of adult learners' motivation levels. Generally, the results highlight that andragogy training strengthens teaching competencies and enriches classroom interaction.
