Descripción:This paper begins by presenting a background section on the term "formation" and proposing the following methodological objective: "To identify relevant elements for university faculty related to non-formal in-service training components, representing those elements using a scheme to show their articulation, all based on the analysis of empirical data". Another separate section is about conceptual referents, which explain how knowledge is supposed to be generated using Grounded Theory bases (Strauss & Corbin) along with "Articulated Reconstruction" proposed by Zemelman. The methodological section describes how the information was collected, mainly through semi-structured interviews with eight participants and two coordinators, distributed in three rounds over a period of 22 months. A later section presents results outlining the following six Ordering Concepts: Agency, Marketization, Proletarianization, Introjection, Resistance and Formative Processes. Examples are provided to illustrate each one as well as a scheme of relationships among them. Finally, in the concluding section, consequent considerations are presented in order to promote formative processes for university professors, such as respect for their diversity, counterbalance excess to Marketization and orientation towards formative autonomy. Alternatives to favor positive changes through specific practices in the classroom, guidelines for the organizational structure in universities, and a proposal to influence on the educational culture from the social function assigned to the universities are mentioned.
