The professional responsibility units (PRUs) represent a conceptual adaptation of the entrustable professional activities (EPAs) proposed by Olle ten Cate, who considers them as a bridge to transfer the competencies generated in the classroom to the real context. The RPAs represent a methodology to supervise and evaluate the development of competencies in veterinary medicine and zootechnics during the professional stay in the clinical area of companion species. With the purpose of having an overview of the competencies in veterinary education at the Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas (UAZ), students who completed the professional internship in the clinical areas of companion animals were surveyed. The methodological instrument contemplated eight units of professional responsibility in five levels of the Likert scale. The results show that the PRUs corresponding to obtaining the clinical history and physical examination stands out with an independent performance without supervision. Most of the PRUs show a gradual ascent of responsibility with a tendency towards autonomous and independent performance. The students' opinions on the PRUs represent a tool for evaluating performance in the real context with a view to rethinking and consolidating medical competencies and ensuring a better professional practice.
