Professional Master’s in Family Health (ProfSaúde): a network teducational experience

The Professional Master’s in Family Health (ProfSaúde) is a nationwide initiative focused on the education of teachers and preceptors in health for the Brazilian National Health System (SUS). This article shows the innovative characteristic of the course in Collective Health, with a pedagogical conception focused on the subject’s learning and strongly developed through distance education face-to-face meetings meetings. Therefore, we aim at presenting the Profsaúde’s proposal focused on its conceptualization, curricular organization, production of educational material, and operation of the network of education and research institutions. In its first edition, 170 Master’s students received their title, and the final products of some of them are being published in this Supplement. We hope this experience can subsidize other educational proposals, understanding that the course is still being constantly improved.
