Introduction: The youth unemployment data in Spain is especially serious in Social Education, widening the gap between the university and the development of the profession. The objective of our study is to determine the value for employability of a discussion held at a Spanish university, a training strategy based on the intergenerational dialogue of active professionals, students, teachers and researchers. Methodology: An exploratory-ethnographic study of the event was carried out, triangulating the analysis of the participants' oral discourses and the observation of their interaction. Results: The study, on the one hand, characterizes the current professional identity of the social educator, highlighting the value of soft skills (learning to learn, collaborating and creating international networks). On the other hand, it establishes the scope of this dialogic pedagogy for the social construction of knowledge and community development. Conclusion: This study defines some curricular (soft skills) and pedagogical (dialogical education) elements to design training programs for employability.
