Initial training / professional , was held mostly in 80-90 years . The training is done regularly in each school year, and focuses primarily on the use of ICT . In Educational Project stands out training through improved knowledge , know-how and the construction of an autonomous citizen, responsible , and participatory .

The priorities of the group aimed at improving the quality of learning , more appropriate to the curriculum and learning goals models . Prepared teachers are more necessary because the defined goals and student profile require a major change to the level of practices and tools to monetize the work . New technologies are important tools in the process , but require new skills to develop . Bet on the training of teachers to meet the expressed needs of the school , but a broad perspective and contact with new models and experiences that help and relativize and globalize . It is a bet on innovation and change, but not an artificial innovation of teachers who use new technologies with goals from old pedagogies , who see the change as a process imposed and what is not appropriate and that is soon forgotten. The option lies in a dynamic and collective process of training which is voluntary but aware about the needs , not forgetting that each teacher has a wide autonomy in the classroom . This is a work that will be done in cooperation and with a common goal , which leads to another problem identified : the difficulties of leadership , a factor that hinders communication and coordination in the vertical and lateral perspectives of curriculum development. The leader must accompany , encourage, be able to delegate and to recognize the valences of each and be a driver of the teaching process . It is a task for which most engineers is not prepared.

The course Leading schools into the future , answers to the difficulties diagnosed at various levels of leadership . The choice of these two courses was due to prior knowledge and references the institution responsible to the respective programs and activities to develop . A team of teachers will be selected in order of their competence and motivation to multiply the gains acquired in the courses . The selection will take into account several criteria that go through the presentation of an individual project or a team that is committed to profitable course of learning acquired in favor of the Grouping .
