Introduction: the management process for training in English is a vital tool for achieving overall objectives in professional and personal training of the basic general practitioner, and that language constitutes a tool for studying and working. Objective: to characterize the current state of the management process for training English in the Medicine major at Pinar del Rio University of Medical Sciences. Methods: a study based on the dialectical materialist method was developed. Historical and logical and systemic-structural as part of a system of theoretical methods were used. Empirical level methods used are: surveys, interviews, observation and descriptive statistics. Results: trends in management education in international and national contexts are systematized. There is no adequate conceptualization of the process in the group this year, for planning, organization, regulation and control; lack of systematic was proved in the methodological work with the disciplines of the group of this year; the mentioned disciplinary process lacks integrity and does not project a coherent English syllabus strategy, specialized for each course of the academic year. Conclusions: at Pinar del Rio University of Medical Sciences, the management process for training in English is not systemic and does not integrate the contents, which limits the actions for the use of the English language as a tool for studying and working after a specialized and comprehensive training of the medical student from the group of this year and in the center of the training process.
