In this paper we discussed the challenges during training for the physical education profession, the official documents requirements, and the physical education insert in the marketplace. We expand our perceptions in the area, and evaluate the purpose of knowledge and expertise achieved in this field; finally, we predict challenges and perspectives to the bachelor's professional preparation in physical education in Brazil. The content analysis of official documents about the bachelor's education supports our propositions concerning the background in this profession, by introducing theoretical studies in the field of education and specific articles in the area. Based on the results of this analysis, we constructed a matrix of knowledge established from the official documents. We developed a set of challenging proposals for professional training, and adapted and articulated them based on varied communities's interests for which this professional is trained to serve.
