This study is aimed at contributing to the transformation movement to be developed in the Nursing Courses/Schools. The contribution refers to the formation of nurses with autonomy and discernment, to ensure the construction of the model of health attention, to the production of new knowledge and to the delivery of quality services directed to the health needs of the population. This study brings some conceptual and methodological reflections that may direct the change in the nurse formation process, as well as pointing strategies to implement the new pedagogic proposal from the challenge posed by the implementation of the National Curriculum Directions for Under-graduate Nursing Courses.
