Because professions are constantly changing and adapting, a permanent adjustment of the skills needed by professionals at any given moment is required. Universities today must take on an active role that will enable such adjustments. University teaching staff must therefore have a broad knowledge of the reality of the profession and incorporate its needs into their own dynamics. In this study we propose an approximation to the Labor Relations profession today ? currently a discipline in the field of  Labor Sciences ? as the context of study, highlight the role Universities must take on today as one of their constituent elements, and stress the importance of teaching-innovation processes aimed at improving the profession. We present a teaching-innovation experience developed by INVESLAB (Research and Innovation in Labor Sciences research group of the University of Valencia) that has led to the creation of the Interuniversity Network for Teaching Innovation in Labor Sciences. This Network has gone beyond the teaching imparted at just one university by incorporating lecturers from throughout Spain (the network currently comprises 53 lecturers from 16 universities) and seeks collaboration with professional entities.
