Recently, several academic events have been dealing with the issue of teacher education. Some are timid proposals and some other are more innovative such as the one dealing with introducing mandatory initial training to enter a career in higher education. This is a concern that leads us to reflecting upon that is something that seems reasonable and logical. This article assumes that the initial and ongoing education of university teachers is necessary and essential in the current and future University and we argue that, rather than demanding it, how necessary it is to ask why it is demanded, as well as to analyze the context in which such education is or could be given, and provide some clues about the content of that education so as make sure it is innovative, taking part of the alleged profession of the university teacher, so as to provide room for discussing that leads to alternatives based on participation, collegiality and collaboration among teachers.

Keywords : University; Teacher Training; University Teaching.
