Achieving satisfactory results in distance education requires the efficient use of different materials and intangible assets together with a team trained to act in this type of education. Thus, the research presented in this paper aimed to analyze the profile of tutors and coordinators of classroom support poles located in the states of Parana, Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina, whose undergraduate distance learning courses are under the supervision of the Federal University of Santa Catarina. To meet the goal, the methodology involved the use of questionnaires to the agents in question, providing quantitative data on their profiles. The results show that the largest share of the analyzed coordinators and tutors are female, aged 36 to 55 years, having mostly expertise residing in the same cities where the courses are offered and are considered in general, satisfied with their assignments.Downloads
