In this article we present a proposal for the scientific community of history didactics on how the connection between society, discipline and profession can be thought from the perspective of history didactics in terms of competence theory. The main aim of our theoretical reflections is to identify historical didactic competences that professionals should have in all fields of social action relevant to historical didactics in order to support the facilitation of historical education. To this end, approaches that go beyond existing research projects were collected in order to present considerations for the modelling of a framework model of historical didactic competences (GeDiKo) that can apply to all actors and institutions in and of historical cultural.
