Abstract

This document identifies the need for large-scale specialization in Family and Community Medicine (FCM) for the physicians of the Brazilian Family Health Program (FHP). The medical residency programs (MRP) continue the golden-standard for graduate education, but they are not enough to fill that gap. It is suggested that the Brazilian Society of Family and Community Medicine (SBMFC) shall be in charge of certifying the process. E-learning with some presential moments is considered the most suitable modality for propitiating access to health professionals already in service; valuing their continuity in the services; directing the teaching-learning process towards comprehensive intelligence and for coordinating different learning resources. The competences are those defined by the WONCA, adapted to the Brazilian reality. .Learn to learn. as a Family Doctor is the main goal. Complex cases constructed according to a framework of different clinical problems adapted to regional realities are the main tool for this process and the SBMFC offers itself to encourage such strategy.
