From 1942 to 1963, there was significant expansion of training courses for rural teachers, with the encouragement and support of the Brazilian federal government. Such courses were to be given in rural schools or Brazilian regional schools. The aim of this article is to learn if, under the auspices of specific training for rural teachers, these courses were organized according to the reality of the rural population at that time. The following issues prompt this study: How were rural teacher training courses proposed in Brazil, and which educational models were followed for training of rural teachers? What defined a rural teacher training course, the environment it aimed to serve or the content taught? The sources of this study were the annals of the 8th Brazilian Education Congress (Goiânia, 1942) and articles published in the journal of the National Rural Education Campaign and the Brazilian Journal of Pedagogical Studies. The approach taken in the rural teacher training courses, within the perspective of specific government action and educational policy for this type of training, was analyzed. It revealed that, although a proposal of specific training activity for work in a rural environment, and thus a didactic-pedagogical conception and administrative organization different from those in effect in the urban teacher training schools, , underlay such rural teacher training courses, in practice, educational conceptions directed toward a single-model school prevailed.
