Resumen
El objetivo de este ensayo es describir cuáles han sido los principales desafíos que ha experimentado el estudiantado de la Escuela de Secretariado Profesional (ESP) de la Universidad Nacional (UNA) de Costa Rica, al regresar a la modalidad presencial después de haber cursado sus estudios por medio de la virtualidad durante dos años, a raíz de los ajustes que fue necesario implementar en la educación por la pandemia mundial del COVID-19, además, se busca conocer qué estrategias ha adoptado la ESP para favorecer el proceso de integración del estudiantado a las clases presenciales y qué otras medidas de flexibilidad curricular se han tomado para facilitar a esta población la continuidad de sus estudios de la mejor manera. El ensayo evidencia que los principales retos del regreso a la presencialidad se categorizan en: económicos, socioafectivos y académicos. Entre las acciones impulsadas por la ESP para facilitar la transición del estudiantado, está la unificación de días para clases virtuales y la incorporación de nuevas modalidades en el plan de estudios.
