Knowing the assessment of qualified professionals about their educational experience allows training programs to respond to the needs of the social and labour environment. The perceptions of graduates from the careers of Secondary Pedagogy in Mathematics and Secondary Pedagogy in Natural Sciences and Biology from a Chilean university are described in terms of the generic and specific competencies acquired and identifies the factors that influence the existence of training gaps.The study was conducted between 2020 and 2021 and considered a mixed approach. Forty-three women and 26 men participated. Data was collected using a questionnaire, semi-structured interviews, and focus groups. From the analysis, it was observed that the participants recognize greater spaces for developing institutional identity competencies. The Use of ICT competence is perceived with few spaces for its development, but with a high valuation of its mastery, particularly in distance teaching. In both careers, various spaces are recognized for the development of the specific Teaching Design competence and a high command of it is perceived; however, the perceptions differ for the Evaluation of Learning and Research in teaching performance competencies. Regarding the gaps identified, the participating group proposes to incorporate, into training the co-teaching strategy and the Universal Learning Design (ULD) model to strengthen the development of generic competencies, Collaborative work and Respect and appreciation of diversity, as well as the specific ones of Design of the teaching and Evaluation for the Learning.
