A educação profissional e tecnologica no Brasil: uma revisão sistemática

Abstract

This monograph presents a systematic literature review on Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) in Brazil. It analyzes the historical evolution of TVET, its role in economic development, and its impact on the employability and income of graduates. The study also compares the Brazilian TVET model with international systems, particularly the German dual model, and highlights the challenges in integrating education with the productive sector. The research reveals that TVET significantly contributes to economic development, aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals, especially SDG 4. Empirical evidence indicates that TVET graduates generally have higher employability and income compared to individuals with only a regular high school education, although results vary according to context. The study also emphasizes the importance of Information and Communication Technology (ITE) skills for competitiveness in the job market. It concludes that, despite challenges, TVET plays a crucial role in human capital formation, promoting social inclusion, and stimulating sustainable economic development in Brazil. The work points to the need for future research on the long-term impacts of TVET on regional development and the inclusion of marginalized groups in this educational modality.
