Currently, an ethical perspective in professional training is essential.

This field of knowledge is related to that proposed by a Common National Curricular Base (BNCC) in the area of Natural Sciences and its Technologies. The objective of this work, the result of a master's dissertation, was to apply a didactic sequence in the discipline “Ethics” of a technical course in the health area with the intention of facilitating the teaching of bioethics together with the development of the transversal competence of ethics, for through Competency-Based Education (EBC). The design consisted of a descriptive case study. The target audience was composed of 32 students, from the 1st module of a radiology technical course from a private institution located in the interior of the State of São Paulo. The results showed that the didactic sequence facilitated the teaching of bioethics and helped in the development of ethics as a transversal competence. Greater scientific literacy of students was perceived, a greater understanding of interdisciplinarity in this field of saber, the development of different behavioral skills and criticality and awareness in self-assessments.
