The objective of this thesis is to understand the ways in which different Spanish-speaking Latin American countries propose the training of professionals to work with sports outside the school context, analyzing the ways of doing the different contexts and training perspectives. We produced a database with information from: a) 64 articles that approach the theme in the world; b) 19 Federal Sports Laws and three official documents of National Sports Policy; c) 139 training institutions that enable them to work in sports, located in the 18 countries that make up Spanish-speaking Latin America. In general, it is developed as a quantitative-qualitative research, of a mixed nature, of the incorporated project type of exploratory character, operating with the comparative method and the documentary-criticism. Chapter I presents the general design of the study, with a question and objectives. Chapter II investigates the way in which the field of academic production that discusses the training of professionals to work in sport is constituted, analyzing, through bibliometric indicators, publications, authors, collaboration networks and journals WHERE articles are published about the theme. Chapter III maps, through the analysis of the contents of articles in circulation in periodicals in the area, the various possibilities of interpretation on the way in which different countries have faced the process of training for the sport. Chapter IV analyzes the legal bases that regulate and characterize the sport in Latin America, understanding how these countries have regulated the professional context that determines the performance in sport. Chapter V presents an overview of how training for sport is present in specific sports laws and also maps the institutions and teaching modalities that are offered by training programs in the 18 spanish-speaking countries of Latin America. Based on the findings, the thesis confirms the hypothesis that there is still no well-defined academic delimitation of training/education for sport in Latin American countries and that in many cases the concept is included within the idea of sports training. It concludes that this movement is reflected in the academic-scientific field, in sports laws, sports policies and training concepts adopted by institutions that enable professionals to work directly in the field.
