Teaching cooperatives are entities of an educational nature that fall within the social economy. These organizations bring together a group of people, united by the desire to meet their needs, both work and professional, to develop their teaching vocation. In this study a literature review has been carried out in order to augment and reinforce the existing literature regarding the cooperative movement in its educational spectrum, analyzed from a qualitative method, focused on a descriptive and comparative study of the various sources of information, with the purpose of understanding the development of educational cooperativism in Spain. Due to their growth in recent years, they have been considered as an alternative form of educational center, when faced with the classicism of the system, made up of public and private centers. Among its goals as an entity, they intend to manage an educational center in an entrepreneurial way, with foundations based on the creation and maintenance of jobs, so as to achieve job stability and tranquility among the professionals involved. It is concluded that these social entities have established themselves as a professional outlet for many university professors and graduates.
