Competencias profesionales de los postgraduados en el Máster de Gestión de la Documentación, Bibliotecas y Archivos desde la perspectiva de empleadores, estudiantes y profesores/Professional competencies of graduates of the Master's in library and information sciences from the perspective of employers, professors and students

This study was designed to identify the extent to which the Master's Program in Library and Information Science, offered by the school of Documentation Sciences at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Spain), covers the competencies considered important by employers and Master's students and professors. A questionnaire was prepared and sent to employers in the information science sector and to professors and students from the Master's Program, asking them to evaluate 29 competencies. Professors and students were also asked to indicate to what extent these skills are included in Master. The most notable result is the existence of a significant gap in the ratings made by students about the importance of each competency and their satisfaction with what was learned. The evaluation framework presented can be used to identify deficiencies in the Master's curricula and to make recommendations for improvement.
