Sumario:With the intense production and publication of scientific information, it has become difficult for medical professionals to keep up-to-date using only the traditional resources. It is urgent to be come familiar with and participate in continuing training processes. Among other initiatives, the Brazilian Medical Association and the National Medical Board launched the National Program for Online Continuing Medical Education, seeking to disseminate the knowledge produced in large cities to profes sionals in the more remote areas of the country or those with less available time. Based on the assumption that the Knowledge Society requires initial and on-going training for professionals and citizens with a new set of skills to act efficiently and responsibly, these programs should be developed through pedagogical approaches that effectively value, beyond content delivery, a willingness to engage in research, autonomy in the search for information, collaborative spirit, and an ethical stance. To contribute to this discussion, the current article aims to resume the process of formal organization of online continuing medical education in Brazil in didactic and pedagogical terms and to analyze the perspectives of distance education programs.
