This paper describes the continuing tutoring training in the experience of distance education implemented in the University of Minas Gerais through GIZ/Prograd. Within the context of Reuni, GIZ has implemented the Undergraduation Teaching Training. Offered to UFMG Master and PhD students. FDES has a team mostly composed by graduate students in Education, and GIZ staff. The training takes place in a space of virtual interaction - Tutor Room - in which the didactic and pedagogical strategies are discussed before being implemented. The challenges in setting effective pedagogical dynamics from the theoretical, methodological and technological training aspects, focus of this analysis, have been systematically discussed and developed in this space, while the theoretical and practical training of these individuals happened. These results lead us to reflect on the pedagogical potential of distance learning for those who will work with tutoring in distance education.
