Abstract
This article presents the pedagogical and philosophical foundations of the curricular designs of law programs in Colombia to identify the training trends of legal professionals in the country. This research was developed under a qualitative approach that seeks to understand how social reality is expressed and a hermeneutic method that
interprets the curricular designs, understood as institutional documents. The results show that legal education is developed from a constructivist pedagogical foundation, a practical curricular design, and an anti-formalist legal-philosophical basis. However, a
minority trend of emancipatory training was also found. The study concludes that while the constructivist trend focuses on epistemological development, from the cognitive and methodological perspectives, the emancipatory trend concentrates on the development
of cognitive, practical, and evaluative aspects from an emancipatory view of legal science. The challenge of these trends is to promote the participation of the entire educational community in the construction of the curricular design.
