Summary: This research was aimed to adjust URACCAN academic offer, based on the realities and needs of professional training in the degree level of the Caribbean Coast of Nicaragua for a period of five years (2014 to 2018). The research was developed in the Autonomous Regions, specifically in the municipalities where the University is present (Bluefields, Pearl Lagoon, Nueva Guinea, El Coral, Almendro, San Miguelito, Siuna, Rosita, Bonanza, Waslala, Bilwi and Waspam). We worked with the finalists high school students (eleventh grade) of all the schools, including the directors of these schools. Likewise, interviewed were applied to authorities of the territorial, municipal and regional governments. The major employers who run the principal institutions of the central, regional and municipal government participated in the study of our graduates from different careers, making an analysis of the development strategy of the Caribbean Coast and the Country National Development Plan. The most demanded careers to be offered and implemented in the four campuses are: Intercultural Medicine, Civil Engineering, System Engineering, and Law with emphasis on Autonomy Law and Business Administration. The academic offer of the University covers some areas in the professional training of development strategy in the Caribbean Coast, but they are others that remain pending as: Land management, food security, water and sanitation, community life and administration of justice, protection of forests and ecosystems, transportation (intercoastal canal or waterway, road construction), renewable energy and water (hydroelectric power) and community agroforestry; so these should be a fundamental part of the new academic offer that the University will carry out during the next five years.
