Abstract :
Traditionally when a professor begins teaching a given course, he or she can assume that all of the students enrolled in said course possess the necessary abilities, knowledge, attitudes and values in order to achieve the desired maximum results of the course in terms of performance. However, that is not always the case. In order to reach said performance goal, it is necessary to first realize a diagnostic analysis of the students from a holistic approach, as opposed to a behavioral one, and to use said results in adapting the learning-teaching process to the group of students in question (adaptive process). From this perspective, it is therefore necessary to define the ideal profile of the alumnus, based on consulting those constituents whom actually interact with students upon graduation or who typically employ students with said profile, and through the use of various tools, not only those academic in nature but moreover those tools related to social skills
