Introduction: Introduction. The School of Education of the Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia proposed, based on a diagnosis, to contextualize its pedagogical model, which has been in place for more than a decade and, consequently, to make the necessary changes. The HERMES pedagogical model has axes, of which this paper presents the Formative Level Projects. The NFP are a strategy to articulate knowledge and experiences developed in each of the levels of the program and to socialize them before the academic community. Students show their competencies to solve problems of their own life or of their pedagogical practice in the different worlds that the model seeks to enhance with the curricular development. The objective was to characterize the implementation of the NFP of the Hermes pedagogical model in the initial version (diagnosis) and in the new version. Methodology: The methodology used was based on the multimethod approach, since it combines quantitative and qualitative methods and techniques. The evaluation was carried out in two stages. First, a diagnosis was made of how the NFP was being executed, followed by the design and implementation of a new version, which was then evaluated. The methods and techniques used were the survey, the semi-structured interview and the focus group. Results: Regarding the NFP, the results of the diagnosis were taken into account for the new version, and its evaluation was carried out, which will allow its improvement. The main strengths of the NFP are creativity, cooperative learning and development of competencies. The main limitations are seen in the use of time, planning and organization. Conclusions: The multi-method approach provides an appropriate methodological framework for evaluating pedagogical models and strategies because, in addition to quantitative data, it is possible to delve into the perceptions, feelings and proposals of the actors in the teaching-learning process.
