Although the concept of competence-based education has become the officia earning modelof educationalpolicy in Colombia, its implications for citizenship formation have been little explored. For this reason, this article aims at offering an understanding that, from political philosophy, allows to problematize how citizenship has been defined in the Citizenship Competences Program (2004-2017). This is a qualitative study with a descriptive and exploratory approach. An exhaustive collection of primary and secondary information was carried out between 2011 and 2017, in which the corpus consisted of institutional documents and the memories of the national forums and regional workshops carried out by the Ministry of National Education in the Caribbean, the Coffee Region, and the Centralregion. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the program managers at the national evel and members of the educational community at Valle del Cauca. The authors found weaknesses in the implicit training approach of the competence-based education model, consisting in its standard and operational nature, which is far from understanding citizenship as a social construction. This article offers a different reading on the competence-based learning model, which is adopted without much reflection in the Latin American and Caribbean educational systems because its formulation usually leaves aside differential approaches, gender, diversity and intercultural perspectives.
