The purpose of this text is to analyze national legislation that suggest the responsibility of the federal higher education institutions in planning and developing continuing education actions for their teachers. It is a qualitative research regarding the approach to the problem, exploratory as to the objective and documentary as to the procedures. The discussion is anchored in Alvarado-Prada, Freitas e Freitas (2010), Behrens (2007), Pachane (2006), Pimenta and Anastasiou (2003), Soares and Cunha (2010), among others. The article consists of two parts. The first presents the main aspects of the aforementioned laws and the second analyzes the points that may have repercussions in promoting continuing education for teachers in higher education. The analysis of national legislation indicated a timid discussion about

teaching and its knowledge in master's and doctoral courses; focus of stricto sensu courses on research; few strategies to guarantee the implementation of personnel development policy for higher education teachers, although the professional development of these teachers are widely considered in external policies for the evaluation of higher education. In summary, there is no national policy of continuing education for university teachers, however, there is legislation that obligates federal institutions of higher education to offer personnel development policy at the level of training - not continuing education - for technical-administrative and teachers.

Palabras clave : Continuing education; National legislation; Higher education teachers.
