Qué es
¿Qué es el AULAB y qué pretende?
El AULAB de la Facultad de Ciencias del Trabajo de la Universidad de Córdoba es un espacio de aprendizaje en el que, en colaboración con el Colegio de Graduados Sociales (ICOGS), permite al alumnado del Grado de Relaciones Laborales y Recursos Humanos (RRLL-RRHH) poner en práctica los conocimientos adquiridos a lo largo de la carrera, mediante la gestión y, en su caso resolución de asuntos en los que actúan como profesionales en los distintos ámbitos de la asesoría laboral, estudiando y resolviendo casos reales planteados por clientes (entidades colaboradoras, etc.), bajo la supervisión del profesorado universitario y, en su caso, de los profesionales que colaboren (Graduados Sociales, asesores, juristas y profesionales de los diversos ámbitos).
Igualmente, AULAB pretende ser una herramienta y un espacio de cooperación con el ICOGS que facilite e incentive el desarrollo y la vocación en el ámbito profesional de la asesoría laboral en general y del graduados social en particular.
El AULAB se configura así como una herramienta con una triple vertiente: como espacio de formación, como proyecto de innovación educativa y como unidad de investigación en relación con la metodología de enseñanza clínica (Clinical Legal Education). La idea principal que se pretende llevar a cabo es que el alumnado de RRLL-RRHH pueda tener unas primeras experiencias en el ámbito de la asesoría sociolaboral.
En la metodología clínica se utilizan métodos interactivos para enseñar habilidades y competencias necesarias para la práctica de la asesoría en el mundo del trabajo. De esta forma, los/as estudiantes tienen la oportunidad de trabajar con profesionales (responsables de recursos humanos, graduados sociales, juristas, empresas, etc.) y, al mismo tiempo, sus actividades son supervisadas y guiadas por expertos y docentes dentro de un sistema estructurado y coherente. El aprendizaje con el método clínico es un proceso de aprendizaje de cómo aprender de la experiencia (learning by doing).
Con esta metodología se consigue: por un lado, trabajar las competencias y habilidades que debe tener todo profesional de este sector, enfrentándose a las problemáticas que pueden surgir en el ejercicio profesional y a los problemas de la realidad social; y por otro, lograr unas personas y profesionales más comprometidos socialmente y sensibilizados ante las desigualdades y en la lucha contra la injusticia, es decir, con una mayor conciencia social, desempeñando así la función social que toda Universidad pública debe cumplir.
En suma, el AULAB es un espacio de promoción de la excelencia en la formación del alumnado de RRLL-RRHH, en el cual estudiantes prestan asesoramiento, gratuito y sin ánimo de lucro en colaboración con miembros del Colegio de Graduados Sociales y bajo la supervisión de profesionales y profesorado.
Una Clínica Legal algo singular y especializada.
El AULAB nació como Proyecto de Innovación Docente y pretende fortalecer el itinerario profesional de la Asesoría jurídico-laboral, fortaleciendo especialmente la vocación de graduado social entre el alumnado de RRLL-RRHH. Con dicha finalidad, cuenta con la estrecha colaboración de Colegio de Graduados Sociales de Córdoba (ICOGS-Córdoba), cuyos miembros participan activamente en su desarrollo. Junto a ello, este Laboratorio que pretende servir de espacio para el asesoramiento a ONG, entidades sin ánimo de lucro y personas sin recursos económicos o en riesgo de exclusión social.
El modelo de formación seguido en el AULAB conecta la realidad jurídica y de gestión con la enseñanza de las materias vinculadas a la asesoría laboral (Derecho del Trabajo, Seguridad Social, Derecho Fiscal y Tributario, contabilidad, etc.), ofreciendo al estudiante la posibilidad de conocer casos reales y actuar sobre ellos. El seguimiento y desarrollo de los asuntos seguirán todos los ámbitos de este perfil profesional: desde la gestión y elaboración de documentación, a la tramitación y actuación ante las instituciones, incluida la (simulación) de intervención-defensa ante la jurisdicción social.
Por esta razón, en el seno del AULAB existe dos Clínicas laborales, interconectadas, pero con profesorado especializado en cada una: por un lado, la jurídico-social (Derecho del Trabajo y de la Seguridad Social, Derecho Fiscal y Tributario y Administrativo) y por otro, la económico-empresarial (Contabilidad, Recursos Humanos, auditoría), al frente de cada una de ellas habrá un profesor/a (Coordinación de Clínica).
