ABSTRACT Objective: To understand how the nursing professor pedagogically prepares for teaching in professional secondary technical education in the light of the Pedagogical Content Knowledge of Lee S. Shulman. Method: This is a qualitative and descriptive study. Two pedagogical workshops were held to collect data, with the participation of six professors from two technical schools. Results: The categories Pedagogical preparation for the teaching exercise and Knowledge Base for Teaching have emerged. The results revealed the difference between the real and the ideal in the perception of the participants, when their preparation for the teaching exercise is situated between the learning with colleagues and the mastery over the Content Knowledge. Final considerations: Professor training is necessary and is an alternative to qualify teaching in professional secondary technical education.
