Brief summary: This study aims to evaluate the effects of online training on self-esteem and occupational stress of healthcare professionals, in order to evaluate the potential of this intervention as a preventive measure to Burnout syndrome. The study will be developed in three phases,the first being the period of one week before the intervention(t0), when instruments will be first applied.The second phase corresponds to intervention period, when the instruments will be reapplied after the second (t1), third (t2) and fourth (t3) training intervention. The third phase corresponds to the follow up (t4-t8), when all instruments used in the second phase will be reapplied in 2 months (t4), 4 months (t5), 6 months (t6), 8 months (t7) and 12 months (t8) after the end of the intervention.

The sample will consist of 100 health professionals randomized into two groups (50 in each group): intervention group (I), formed by those who will participate in the online training and control group (C), formed by those who will receive the intervention after research is finished.

The hypotheses are: the online training will have greater effect on the increase of self-esteem, and will be identified in health professionals: low levels of global self-esteem, high levels of occupational stress and average levels of burnout.
