We used analysis of documents of the PPC and simple observation data production procedures. The results indicate that there are advances, challenges and possibilities for this training. The advances relate to the design and implementation of such training and your contribution to critical and transformative training and expansion of the number of enrollments in higher education. The main challenges are the long distances that separate the University and rural communities where learners reside, making the monitoring and guidance of students by teachers and the fact that most teachers don't know the Organization of pedagogical work through and switching field of knowledge, requiring therefore continuous formative processes and training for self understanding and implementation of this proposal. As regards the main possibilities is the formation of new profiles of teachers, whose political dimension enables the construction of a critical view about the contradictions experienced in reality and ability to act, from the relation theory and practice.
