A methodological proposal is presented whose objective is to analyze the technological innovation capabilities of an aerospace regional innovation system (hereinafter ARIS) through a Partial Least Squares Structural Equations Model -PLS SEM. The model conceives that capacities and resources affect the technological learning of the system. The methodology is of a mixed sequential exploratory type. Through the method of deductive reasoning, the variables of the model are configured, which lead to the construction of an instrument that is tested with the companies associated with the ARIS of Antioquia - Colombia, based on the information obtained, we proceed to validate the consistency and reliability of the technological innovation capabilities (hereinafter TIC) measurement and evaluation system, through Cronbach's alpha coefficient to, finally, refine and improve the model from the application of PLS SEM. In the improvement exercise based on the results, the use of variables that are not representative for the system is discarded. It is concluded that the set of variables selected for the system allows consolidating a construct that allowed measuring and evaluating the CTI, providing information on the levels of development of capabilities in the observed period of time. In addition, the incidence of technological learning is evidenced by the relationship of CTI accumulated by the system.
