The educational modalities  in vocational training, academic graduate and continuing education can be of different types and their curriculum units vary depending on their levels of complexity.

In this sense it is very important to specify the level of granularity of the learning process in question:

Level 4 Mode: Discipline Masters-Degree-Course.
Level 3 Modular Unit: Subject-Course-Module.
Level 2 Didactic Unit: Topic-Theme-Lesson.
Level 1 Learning Unit: Class-Activity-Meeting.

Any of these learning processes must be at least the following well-defined components:

1. Objectives to be achieved at the end of the process. What for?
2. Roles of students and teachers. Who is it for? Who will he count as facilitators and / or guardians?
3. Time needed to implement the objectives. When?
4. Resources (teaching aids, learning tools) What? How many?
5. Context in which teaching activities will be developed. Where?
6. Address content and skills achieved during the process. What?
7. Teaching strategy to follow for the development and dynamics of the teaching process, including the necessary interaction (communication between students and tutors) and Feedback (formative assessment activities and / or certificates). How?

Among the benchmarks of the VCPH is the educational model that establishes the principles and methodological standards for the design, implementation and evaluation of learning processes on campus.
