Specialization in Work Management and Health Education: an analysis of the national program

ABSTRACT

One of the purposes of component III of the SUS Work and Education Management Structuring and Qualification Program (ProgeSUS) was to offer specialization courses in Work Management and Health Education. The objective was to analyze this formative process in the country, punctuating its results and the analytical perspectives of the leaders at the different levels of coordination; from qualiquantitative analysis. It used records of the general coordination and the application of a semi-structured questionnaire in which the analysis was subtracted from the perspective of local coordinators. In total, 1,471 managers were qualified: 557 in the Northeast, 301 in the North, 236 in the Southeast, 224 in the Midwest and 153 in the South. It was verified: great permanence of the students in the management positions; applicability of the intervention projects prepared by them; the Labor Management axis of greater evidence in the first two classes, but of equal interest with the Education Management in the third class; and requiring deepening and increasing workload on specific topics in these axes. This information constitutes important subsidies for the formulation of public policies for the continuation of this qualification process, mainly due to the growing outsourcing of health workers ‘labor relations and SUS workers’ management.
