Abstract
For the faculty, the starting point of a higher education of quality is the processes established in society. Another aspect to consider in the quality of education is framed within the competences. The scope of quality education in terms of skills, should be considered in the vision and mission of an educational institution; a strong anthropological, political, sociological and ethical knowledge will give a more integral formation to students. Schools of higher education have the task of generating the critical and reflective thinking; thanks to the latter creativity and innovation are feasible. The importance of academic bodies is that the development of a collegial work among teachers and full-time faculty, to guide and set the direction of the academic institution, promotes the linking of processes for generating and / or application of knowledge sectors abroad. At present, specialist training is no guarantee of adequate performance of professionals in educational institutions.
