The National Curricular Directives for health degree courses orient toward a forming that promotes the intellectual development and the permanent training in the search for professional autonomy. This study aimed to discuss about the competencies and skills guided by the Directives for the training of health professionals in the UHS context. It is a qualitative study of the bibliographical type. The results show that the directives orient toward a forming that qualifies the professional to the UHS through six general competencies that must be common to all healthcare professionals. Health care; decision taking, based on scientific evidence; communication; leadership, to work in multidisciplinary team; administration and management, and Continuing Education. We have considered the unpreparedness of professionals on the complexity of the service and subjectivity that any practice of health care demands, enabling discussions about the responsibility of health schools face the challenges of the UHS. We have considered that the DCNs and guidelines issued by their skills and general abilities, including the Pedagogic Projects of the Course, once problematized and assumed by the school and coordinated with the public administration, may be the way to real change in professional health profile in the UHS.
