ABSTRACT
In the last decade, the teaching of research in nursing curricula has focused on evidence-based practice. The objective of this article is to describe a model for implementing this practice in the undergraduate, postgraduate and continuing education curriculum of a nursing school. In view of this, theoretical-clinical courses were selected, and both scholars and nurses from the clinical fields were trained to ensure the continuity of student learning. The contents and competences to be taught and evaluated at each level of training were established. To conclude, the School of Nursing at Pontifical Catholica University of Chile has managed to implement evidence-based care, with the development of skills in students and professionals, in order to provide evidence-based care and/or synthesize evidence so that it be used by other professionals.
