Abstract
Currently, schools are not born inclusive, and teachers report feeling that this approach is alien to their practical possibilities, so they constantly ask for training on the subject. However, this training is hardly transferred to the school. This chapter has therefore set out to analyse how training bodies in Costa Rica are doing, and how much of this effort is permeating the educational culture. The methodologies applied were studied, as well as the background of good practices, with the final intention of guiding more effective training to make inclusion a sine qua non condition of being a school.
