The main objective of this research is to investigate teachers’ perception of the EDPJA program in the Dominican Republic, as well as their opinion on ICT training. Likewise, it analyzes, the possibilities that represent the means of technology of the information and communication; in addition, it develops an analysis on the role of ICT in the work rooms, in the same way that influences the teaching-learning processes and the possible technical difficulties that can be generated. From a quantitative study with a non-experimental-transverse exploratory type design. With a probabilistic sample of 100 teachers to whom a survey was applied. The results reveal data that need special attention, given the nature of the context in which the study is developed. In this sense, a high index of teachers recognizes ICT as a fundamental instrument of educational innovation and facilitators of learning; however, they admit that they do not have basic training for their implementation.
