Abstract(s)

The profound and rapid changes in our society require challenges and timely responses from people and official institutions. Recycling in training and the need to acquire new skills has become a reality. It is in this conjuncture that Distance Learning and Elearning, in particular, have become essential allies of people and institutions. Due to new legal orders to teachers of different levels of education training requiring the attendance, with success, of an appropriated pedagogic training course by the end of the school year of 2012/13, many of these professionals saw their job post concerned. Universidade Aberta was called to carry their social role. UAB has established a protocol with the Ministry of Education, outlined a training course and has been forming these professionals. Since its start it has already certified 1828 teachers in various scientific areas guaranteeing them the opportunity to continue to practice their career.
