Quality in health is measured through indicators, which show its status, considering its different attributes, one of them being professional competence. The importance of the certification of the development of competencies in the training process of future health professionals and its impact on the quality of services, poses a challenge and has great relevance at the level of individual providers, professional societies and higher education institutions. The accreditation of professional competencies is a necessary element to promote the improvement of the quality of health care in Chile, so the certification of these scientific-technical competencies could become one more tool for assuring the quality of health care
