The Ministry of Health has instituted the Permanent Health Education (PHE) with the purpose to change both the practices and the education of health professionals. As a strengthening strategy of this policy, the formation of PHE tutors and facilitators has begun in the whole country. This project aims to analyze this individuals' perception on the PHE facilitator course in Londrina, PR. It is a qualitative study, carried out with PHE tutors and facilitators from December 2006 to January 2007. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and submitted to the discourse analysis proposed by Martins and Bicudo. By analyzing two categories the study revealed: Contributions from the permanent health education course and Critics on the facilitators' formation process. The results showed that despite some limitations such as the course period, selection of facilitators and difficulties with the course methodology, the education of facilitators has brought contributions to the systematical knowledge on PHE and the opportunity to reflect upon the practices in health.
