Abstract

In the current Brazilian context of teacher education, the Scientific Technical Council of Basic Education CAPES deserves to be highlighted. Through interaction with the literature and educational legislation dealing with the initial and continuing training of teachers and the application of questionnaires to members of the CTC/EB/ CAPES, we hope to contribute to the dynamics of the training and to understanding and improving it. We acknowledge the important role of the CTC/EB/CAPES in conducting the National Policy of Teacher Training. The study reveals the transitory nature of the level on which teacher training occurs. It also highlights the conflict between recognizing the need for training within higher education and keeping it on the secondary level, thereby denoting the indefinition of a training policy for these professionals.
