ABSTRACT
Introduction: To investigate the graduates' satisfaction is a current topic in university management programs, not in master's degree courses, where little is studied regarding the graduates' opinion, caused by the development of their educational processes.Objective: To determine, according to the graduates' opinion, their satisfaction with the development of the educational-teaching process, in the II edition of the master's degree courses in the broad-access modality at Manuel Fajardo School of Medical Sciences.
Methods: Theoretical, empirical and statistical methods were used. A questionnaire was conducted on 93 graduates, in order to know their opinion, based on a Likert scale, their satisfaction with four indicators were selected and generally with this process.
Results: For the Teaching Learning Process, 59.1 % of graduates were satisfied, while 3.2 % are dissatisfied. The faculty performance level: most of them (80.6 %) are very satisfied, while 1.1 % are unsatisfied. The advisor's work: 80.6 % stated that they were very satisfied, while 3.2 % are dissatisfied. General speaking, satisfaction reached with the development of the educational-teaching process, an indicator where there is a predominance of opinions of very satisfied graduates (71.0 %), while occupying the dissatisfactions we have a figure of 2.2 %, generally due to the fact that both faculties and advisors do not have enough time to develop their supervising functions, and thus educational consultations and attempts against the counseling process.
Conclusions: The satisfaction reached by the educational process in the edition investigated, according to the graduates, is very satisfactory and has inestimable value as a instrument determinative of the postgraduate courses imparted, so that its implementation contributes to the improvement of the academic training programs.
