This article aims to discuss aspects related to training LIBRAS teachers for different levels of education and the tensions resulting from deaf education/inclusive education. When analyzing the historical/conceptual processes related to teacher training, we find little investment in the training of bilingual educators; on the other hand, there is a great effort to train teachers to work in the final years of elementary and high school and in higher education. However, we question the effects of this training, which emphasizes linguistic contents rather than didactic and pedagogical contents. In higher education, the different ways of understanding the objectives of LIBRAS as a subject matter indicate this is a privileged space for training teachers who will work with deaf students. In conclusion, in this context, the prevailing logic in the implementation of current policies favors the principles of inclusive education and not the bilingual education for deaf people.

Keywords : Teacher Training; Brazilian Sign Language; Basic Education; Higher Education.
