By this research we proposed to perform an analysis of the political pedagogical project focused on teachers formation in two Biological Sciences undergraduate courses in Goiânia city - the Biological Sciences Licentiateship (BSL) at the Federal University of Goiás and the Pontifical Catholic University of Goiás one - and the continuing education programs offered by Municipal Education Secretary, through the Education Center for Teaching, and by the State Secretary of Education and Culture, through the Special Education Management, from 2009 to 2010, in order to verify if, and how, such institutions were improving the Biological Sciences teacher training for inclusive education, as they prepared him to deal with diverse learning needs. We chose a qualitative approach and a documentary research. Official documents that establish the teacher education policy were analyzed as well as the inclusion policy in such institutions. For systematization and data analysis was used theoretically based content analysis. Seven themes emerged from reading and re-reading of the data: common aspects between legislation on inclusive approach and the political-pedagogical projects of the BSL courses; the educational and philosophical principles of inclusion adopted by projects; the organizational structure of the BSL – initial teacher education; issues related to inclusive education presented in disciplines of the BSL courses; the political fundamentals that guide the projects of continuing education courses for teachers offered by employing institutions; the pedagogical purposes of the continuing education courses offered by employing institutions; issues related to inclusive education discussed in the continuing education for teachers. We found that the BSL courses of the higher education institutions surveyed do not mention public policies concerned with preparing teachers for inclusive education. We also found that the historical, political, ethical, social and pedagogical aspects related to inclusive education are absent in the licentiateship projects surveyed and present in the plans and programs of the biennial continuing education activities of the Secretaries. However, we did not identify the Biological Sciences teachers in any of these education activities focused on their preparation to deal with learning in the inclusive approach.
