Abstract

Teaching is amongst the most health damaging professions. The sudden transition to remote learning during the Covid19 pandemic contributed to an increase in these symptoms, reducing the quality of life and well-being of this population. Taking that into consideration, the aim of this study is to report the experience of the extension project of Health Care for Teachers in Remote Teaching, carried out by QualiMack - Quality of Life and Health at Work Program, of the Center for Biological and Health Sciences of the Mackenzie Presbyterian University. Remote meetings were held based on Health Education, which consisted of 08 meetings for Guidance Groups and 12 for Relaxation Activities. Some material summarizing the main content of the activities proposed was created and disseminated with the purpose of self-instructional reinforcement. A hundred and seventy-six professors from the host institution and 113 from other institutions participated. The strategies increased the participants' health repertoire and contributed to the training and improvement of the team in multidisciplinary work and interaction with the community.
