This article reflects on the Pedagogical Course Project of Higher Education Institutions, pointing to it as a normative document that contains the technical aspects, the conceptions of man and society, in addition to the professional profile that one wishes to achieve, having as a priority function to guide and intentionally conduct the pedagogical process in the daily life of the classroom. Its organization is based on the Federal Constitution; in the LDB – Law of Guidelines and Bases for National Education; in the National Curriculum Parameters and in the Institutional Development Plan – PDI of each HEI – Higher Education Institution, with a view to training critical, reflective subjects committed to social change. Therefore, it emphasizes the importance of continuing teacher education, considering that the role of the teacher today is to be a facilitator in the teaching and learning process, helping the student to think, question, read the reality of the world and build their own opinions , valuing the collective process, which consists of learning with other students, with other professors from other areas and with non-academic professionals, extending the learning environment to society in general, experiencing interdisciplinarity.
