The Information Society imposes challenges to information professionals who influence the design of syllabi and associated curricular documents. This article presents some conceptual-theoretical reflections on cognitive skills. International guidelines of the Special Library Association (SLA), the DECIDoc project, the National Agency for Quality and Accreditation Assessment (ANECA) and the European Council of Information Associations (ECIA) are also analyzed. The documentary research presented entails a qualitative content analysis showing that the most representative cognitive skills in the formation of information professionals are analysis, synthesis, application, and evaluation.

Keywords : Cognitive Skills; Information Sciences; Information Professional Training.
