Higher education institutions need to define their faculty profile to guarantee educational quality. This paper seeks to research the faculty competencies which, according to students, eased their learning. The study was carried out in a private Mexican university. Through focus groups consisting of students, we obtained a list of the most outstanding practices by faculty with the best evaluations. Such practices translated into questions which, in turn, turned into an observation guide subjected to validation by experts of the same university. As a result, the three-dimensional competency model for university faculty was validated.
