The goal of this research is to analyze the objectives of the National Education Plan (PNE) and the State Education Plans (PEEs), which deal with training and valuation of teachers, trying to identify the links between these objectives and the attractiveness of teaching profession. The research discusses the intrincate layers about this subject through the following questioning: How does the discussion about the atractiveness of teaching profession aligns to the theme of training and valuation of teachers, mainly emphasized from the nineties? And in which conditions the goals and strategies of nowadays education plans deal with attracting, keeping and developing these professionals? Concerning to the methods, the following work is characterised as a bibliographic and documental one, taking its approach to PNE and the PEEs, as well as the national educational legislation. By adding the package of articles, theses and dissertations studied, the bibliographic part is based on authors such as: Gatti (1992; 2008), Oliveira (2004; 2010), Saviani (2007; 2009), Valle (2002; 2006) e Cunha (1999; 2006). Therefore, trying to see beyond borders, we added to this discussion, the appointments of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), which are focused on attracting, keeping and increasing competences of education professionals, considering the importance of understanding the internal and external strenghts which are present between the lines of Brazilian Educational policies. The following research has concluded that there is a growing discussion about the attractiveness of teaching profession, and in the whole of the analyzed goals and strategies, it is possible to figure out that there is a proximity to attractiveness, concerning to the search for conditions that may be able to attract, keeping and developing the teaching staffs. However, the research has concluded that, in order to achieve a convergence between goals and the three requirements of attractiveness (attracting, keeping and developing), it will be necessary that the federal entities, along with the Union, comply with the educational policies for teaching training, becoming effective their respective Education Plans.
