This text presents the profiles of the tutors in the Unesp/Univesp program and discusses their conceptions of different aspects of distance education. This was accomplished by presenting a questionnaire to 41 tutors. The results show that, in general, the tutors believe that distance education is capable of offering quality teacher training, and consider the tutoring work indispensable to guarantee the quality of the interactions among students. A considerable number of tutors considered the educational materials highly valuable for the learning process. Their conceptions also showed that there is still strong prejudice against distance learning in the labor market
