This study, based on a completed research, presents the contributions of the continuing education of higher education teachers for the implementation of an innovative proposal of training in a course of Pedagogy of the University Center Serra dos Órgãos - UNIFESO - based on the Work Project Methodology. It discusses how the continuing and in-service training of teachers who work in the Pedagogy course, held on by the pedagogical coordinator as teacher trainer, can potentialize the pedagogical practice of these teachers especially with regard to the requirements of the new course proposal. The data are derived from observations made during the in-service and continuing training of trainee teachers and teacher trainer and questionnaires. From the results it can be inferred, especially, that these collective moments of sharing and construction of the planning between professors and the pedagogical coordinator made possible the reorganization of the pedagogical work through reflections, exchange of experiences and knowledge. The results revealed that there is an effort on the part of those involved, teachers in training and teacher trainer, to transform the way of teaching, based on the Work Project Methodology, to achieve a more meaningful learning by the Pedagogy’s students. They also demonstrated that this collective training movement that takes place in the work locus concomitantly with the implementation of a new proposal for the Pedagogy course is essential for the promotion of changes and significant transformations in the teaching work itself.
