In response to the changing social, economic, political, cultural and educational conditions generated by the advancement of information and communication technologies, higher education demands from its universities an adaptation of its structures and teaching organization. Among the main challenges for health professionals is the development of competences and abilities for the use of these technologies. The authors set out to reflect on the incorporation of their competences in undergraduate and postgraduate university curricula to face the challenge imposed by the technological explosion of the so-called era or knowledge society.
