This research aimed to identify and analyze the didactic practices of professors of undergraduate Psychology courses related to training in Community Social Psychology (CSP). Twelve professors from four Psychology courses from a southern Brazilian capital city participated in the research, who answered a semi-structured interview script. It was found that the teaching plans are drawn up from the menu or through joint participation with teachers in the area. Teachers use a variety of didactic resources (books, articles, videos) and strategies for learning assessment (exams, seminars, procedural assessment). A common point refers to the dynamics for carrying out internships through methodological steps (use of theoretical framework, familiarization with the context and elaboration of an intervention project). The professors demonstrated experience in participating in community social projects, they perceive the advances of the CSP and the investments made by the educational institutions to promote training that allows the student to have an overview of the theoretical and practical aspects of CSP.
