NAVES, Flaviana Franco et al. Psychologist training in education: the conceptions of professors. Psicol. educ. [online]. 2017, n.44, pp.67-77. ISSN 1414-6975.  https://doi.org/10.5935/2175-3520.20170007.

The 2004 Brazilian Curriculum Guidelines for Psychology Courses has begun a series of changes in the curriculum, pedagogical projects, and routine of Psychology Courses. This inter-institutional research aimed to analyze professors' conception about Psychology training, focusing on the educational processes, as well as their understanding of the consequences of these new guidelines for the everyday activities of Psychology courses. The research was developed in five Higher Education Institutions in the state of Minas Gerais, with 13 professors of educational processes as participants. The methodology involved an individual structured interview with each professor. Based on the reading of the interviews, three analytical categories were created: Brazilian Guidelines for Psychology Courses; Training of Psychologists; Training of Psychologists for Work in the Field of Education. The analysis indicates that the professor, as a main figure in the training process, needs to be aware of the current legislation of the course; and the Institutions ought to promote dialogues about the Curriculum Guidelines, as the implementation of those depends on a collective work, which should include the professors' participation. In conclusion, this research highlights the urgency of critical training for educational psychologists, considering the complexity of educational phenomena in everyday professional practice.
