This research has verified that professionals who works in early intervention feel themselves as unprepared in their professional performance, this feeling exists in relation to children as to family. This work also noticed that the lack of specified literature and the little number of offered courses produce a commitment of those professionals in relation to formation, specialization and updating. In this way, this work proposes some measures as: a) University mobilization in order to have, in the way of research, teaching and extension, an active participation in professionals updating; b) a referential model implantation of research and formation of professionals of early intervention, in a presencial and virtual environment composed by digital library and specialized data bank; c) presencial and distance education courses creation for this area. These measures intend to promote a constantly formation and technical-pedagogical updating of these professionals, in order to proportionate a high quality answer in early intervention.
