This research has as its object of study the Common National Base for Teacher Training (BNC-Formação) as a policy

 aimed at teacher training and its implications for the degree course in Biological Sciences at the Regional University

 of Cariri-URCA/CE. It questions how the disciplinary community/teachers of the degree course in Biological 

Sciences at Urca mean BNC-Formação in the training of Biology teachers. The general objective of the study is to 

investigate how the disciplinary community/teachers of the undergraduate course in Biological Sciences at Urca 

mean BNC-Formation in the training of Biology teachers. As specific objectives, we intend to: analyze the curricular 

organization of the degree course in Biological Sciences at Urca, identifying aspects of the Common National Base 

(BNC - Training); identify discourses from the disciplinary community/Biology teachers regarding the Common 

National Base (BNC-Formação); understand, through the speeches of teachers from the Biological Sciences degree 

course, the implications for the configuration of the training processes of teachers in this area. This is qualitative 

research, of an exploratory nature, as our purpose is to build knowledge about BNC-Formação in conjunction 

with teachers' speeches from a comprehensive perspective. As a theoretical-methodological approach, this 

research will be based on the policy cycle of Stephen Ball and collaborators (1992), supported by studies by 

Mainardes (2018; 2006) as he believes that such an approach allows us to understand educational policies, 

in general, and, in particular, investigate how the disciplinary community of the degree course in Biological 

Sciences at the Regional University of Cariri (Urca) means BNC-Formation in the training of Biology teachers, 

the object of this investigation. To achieve the objectives, we intend to use as sources official curricular 

documents from BNC-formation and the Pedagogical Project of the Biological Sciences Course at Urca, as well 

as the BNC-formation curriculum policy and its implications for teacher training. Regarding the objectives of 

identifying Biology teachers' speeches regarding the Common National Base (BNC-Formação), we propose that 

data collection be carried out through the application of semi-structured interviews, due to their flexibility when

 dealing with the subjects researched.
