Introduction: a teaching strategy is carried out to achieve a greater interrelation of the contents with the requirements of the professional model in the Health Information Systems career. This one has its bases on a previous research work where the lack of motivation and the causes why the students drop out the career were diagnosed. The curriculum of the career, methodological and organizational regulations and the methodological guidelines of the Higher Education Ministry were reviewed. Objectives: to elaborate a teaching strategy to achieve a greater interrelation of the contents with the requirements of the professional model in the Health Information Systems career.   Methods: there were used theoretical methods such as historical-logical, analytic-synthetic and inductive-deductive. And the empiric methods used were: analysis of documents and the observation. Outcomes: a teaching strategy is design to facilitate the knowledge development and the associated skills with the graduate functions and the so called professional problems to be solved, including extracurricular university activities, which facilitate the participation in different sports and cultural activities that allow the elevation of their general culture, propitiating a greater motivation in the students. Conclusions: the strategy matches the problems detected in the diagnoses and contributes to the development of their professional competences which allow them to take decisions according to the socio-working context.
