Quality criteria for teacher training in health using ICT

This work is a master’s dissertation in Professional Health Education from the Joaquim Venâncio Polytechnic Health School - FIOCRUZ RJ. The training of health professionals, especially at technical level, to meet the needs of the SUS, is carried out by the Technical School of the SUS of Rio Grande do Norte (ETSUS-RN), which is responsible for organising professional education and promoting technical qualification and specialisation courses in the health area, as well as training its teachers. In this study, we opted for a qualitative approach and carried out a documentary analysis - using the thematic content analysis proposed by Bardin (2011) and recognised by Minayo (2014) - of the Teacher Training Course in Professional Education in the Health Area and the Pedagogical Management Course for the ETSUS; as well as consulting legal documents such as Decree 5. 622/2005, Resolution 2/2015 and the Quality Benchmarks for Distance Higher Education/2007, all of which contributed to achieving the objectives of identifying and systematising quality criteria for teacher training courses in health using DICTs.
