Abstract	The institutional drive to implement innovation in higher education institutions, in line with the goals of the European Higher Education Area, is insufficient to achieve the effective implementation, as it is conditioned by a number of factors, most importantly, the motivation and training of university teachers. This study aims to analyse the level of innovation competence among teachers of higher education, establishing a framework adapted to the university environment and creating a questionnaire to determine the innovation competence profile of teachers. A sample of 1,404 teachers in Spain, Mexico and Bolivia was used to conduct a comparative study of their innovation skills and resources which will aid the development of possible strategies for improvement. The results will facilitate decision-making in designing training policies to raise the level of innovation competence among university teaching staff and the adaptation of the teaching/learning process for the acquisition of 21st century competences.
