Abstract This work analyzed the necessary requirements to act as a distance tutor in the specialization courses in Health Management offered by the Sistema Universidade Aberta do Brasil. The goal was to analyze the requirements for the position of distance tutor in selection notices. Through a documentary analysis, the calls for selection of distance tutors published between the years of 2013 and 2015 were analyzed. This research presents a quantitative approach of the descriptive and exploratory type. It was possible to localize the notice for the selection of tutors in only 65.1% of the 23 Higher Education Institutos that offer the course. In the analysis of the notices, 66.7% of the institutions required tutors to be trained in the medical field. As for teaching experience, only 46.7% had such a requirement. As for previous experience in distance learning, only 13.3% required that the tutor should have knowledge of it and another 13.3% initially valued having experience in distance learning. It was found that the majority demanded cognitive competences to the detriment of functional, behavioral, political and ethical ones. It is recommended that the educational institutions evaluated improve the selection processes for tutors.
