The training of professionals is inseparable from their ethical training. The teaching of Pediatrics may contribute to the comprehensive training and, in particular, to the ethical training of the students, since it takes place at the pediatric services, where they work and are educated, and propitiates the discussion of the ethical dilemmas the graduates should face. One of the ways for the training of ethical values is the identification of the graduate's profile, for which it is transcendental the professor's influence and his training. Finally, it is stated the need to evaluate systematically and and the practical exams the ethical behavior of students.
