Summary: The term �citizenship training school� is wrongly used because several training processes and civic and political education projects corresponding to specific contexts and several educational interests are identified. In order to obtain a concept which may determine both content and scope of a citizenship training school, having the Colombian Political Constitution (Republic of Colombia, 1991) as a reference is a must, because both concepts (citizenship training and Constitution) show a necessary and indivisible relationship. In our case, 1991 Constitution establishes some basic guidelines in Articles 41 and 67 which can be used as a parameter for foundation, themes, and methodology of a citizenship training school. Consequently, the Constitution becomes a general and mandatory study plan for all kind of citizenship training schools; a plan which is supported by an ethicalsocial and political education from the axiology and principle content, which allows strengthening the democratic model and generating a higher social cohesion.
