A qualitative investigation was carried out with the phenomenological method since it recovered experiences and perceptions of professors and students of Bachelor in Educational Intervention with the purpose of understanding from the perception of the actors the critical thinking skills that they need to develop to carry out the process of educative intervention. A focus group was held with teachers, 55 interviews and 55 mixed questionnaires for students in sixth and eighth semesters attending professional practices. The skills that still need to be developed to intervene are inductive reasoning and argumentation, important to develop diagnoses and identify areas of opportunity to transform them.
