This is a discussion about Brazilian higher education, using as a parameter specialization courses in the postgraduate program based on the analysis of the Programa da Residência Multiprofissional em Saúde [Multidisciplinary Residency Program in Health-care], known as a postgraduate program. We used historical and documental research as a tool for analysis of the problems faced in the training model proposed in the Program and presented by the ministries of Education and Health as the basis for the consolidation of the national policy of health education. Our results show the importance of the postgraduate program in healthcare education. However, it's irregular offering and, in most cases, not academic, has characterized a limited model from a commercial perspective, highlighting the lack of public policies that ensure proper qualification. A Multidisciplinary Residency in Health-care aims to be a new strategy for policies of permanent education that by focusing on non-medical professional groups from the area, promotes the production of the necessary conditions for changes in the still hegemonic restrictive medical care model, of attention in healthcare. The question is whether the interference in the educational model will contribute to better professionals in the area or if it limits the structure of the network of public services by offering a field of precarious work.
