The totality of this training process stands on the quality of preparation of the tutor professors to perform this function. These tutor professors are practicing professionals who had a non-pedagogical theoretical instruction; therefore they are supported on a non-systemic and empiric teaching, in consequence, the duty is to train these professionals.
