BICA, RAFAEL BARBOSA DA SILVA  and  KORNIS, GEORGE EDWARD MACHADO. GLOBAL EVALUATION OF BRAZILIAN MEDICAL EDUCATION: INTERESTS OF THE ACTORS INVOLVED. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.32, e07592.  Epub July 21, 2021. ISSN 1984-932X.  https://doi.org/10.18222/eae.v32.7592.

The article discusses the interests of the medical corporation, the academic community and representatives of the executive branch in the systemic evaluation structure of Brazilian medical education. It shows that the medical corporation tends to support evaluations with a more regulatory bias, contrasted with the interests of the academic community. It argues that the representatives of the executive branch are subjected to mutually antagonistic demands that put pressure on their policies: to expand the medical education network and to regulate its quality. The article concludes that the configuration assumed by the medical education evaluation systems depends on the political articulation of the actors involved, on the strength of the social demands on the topic, and on the balance between governmental priorities for the expansion of medical education and the regulation of its quality.

Keywords : MEDICAL TRAINING; HIGHER EDUCATION EVALUATION; STAKEHOLDERS.
