The teaching of cultures constitutes a generalized practice in the context of the foreign language teaching- learning process. Although the understanding of diversity is a necessity for any specialist in the globalized world, it has greater relevance for the training of professionals in foreign languages, essentially focused on interaction with other cultures. The development of the intercultural competence of such students must be based on the knowledge of the theoretical and methodological assumptions of three basic concepts on whose treatment and interaction greatly influence the success of the process: culture, interculturality and education. The present inquiry made use of the dialectical-materialist method, the historical-logical, the systemic-structural, the analysis-synthesis, the induction-deduction, the abstraction-generalization, and the empirical level, the documentary analysis.In order to provide a conceptual basis for the intended intercultural training, integrating these three categories, this article aims to analyze theoretical and methodological references related to culture, interculturality and education within the framework of the teaching foreign languages. The recognition of essential features of culture, such as its needed links with interculturality, the heterogeneity of the human groups that comprise it, the variability that it shows throughout its development and the discursive, textual and interpretive character it possesses, are essential for its treatment from an intercultural perspective that necessarily leads to the comprehensive training of professionals.

Palabras clave : culture; interculturality; education.
