JARA CONCHA, Patricia  and  STIEPOVIC BERTONI, Jasna. Shool of nursing competency-based curriculum. Invest. educ. enferm [online]. 2007, vol.25, n.2, pp.122-129. ISSN 0120-5307.

We analyze the impact of higher education on the society and its fitting within a globalized world and discuss some notions regarding nursing education particularly at the graduate level in the current context driven by the education-production paradigm. We present a critical analysis of the components of a competence-based curriculum for a master of nursing program and discuss its implications for both work and academic contexts. Finally, we propose three basic competences for nursing graduate education based on three key dimensions of knowing: including to know, to know how and to know being.

Keywords : Professional competence; nursing graduate; higher education.
