The theme of teacher education has been extensively researched in recent decades because it recognizes the relevance of the teacher in the construction of quality education, understood here as one capable of contributing to the integral development of students. In any field, professional knowledge represents the set of knowledge that enables the exercise of the profession, however in the exercise of teaching this knowledge goes beyond the academic knowledge that can be built in university banks. The research presented here took place in the years of 2018 e 2019 and it aimed to understand the professional development of teacher trainers in a Pedagogical Training Course. As a research methodology, narrative research was used, as it privileges the teachers' speech as a source, providing the articulation of the personal and social dimensions that make up their ideas, their beliefs, their ways of thinking and being in the role of teacher educators. As a method of analysis, Qualitative Content Analysis was chosen, as it allows for a comprehensive and inductive analysis of forms of communication. The research subjects are teachers who work in the course as internship supervisors. The results pointed to the influence of personal experiences as a student, of continuing education training and of his professional life trajectories in his professional development. It is concluded that the professional development of teacher educators had as one of its main sources the degree in pedagogy, expanding through continuing education in the area of education and learning that comes from the relationship with other teachers and students. Thus, the importance of thinking about spaces and times of formation, initial and continued, of higher education teachers is emphasized.
