This paper discusses the difficulties of working with the memories of Professional Education in the State of São Paulo. From the experience of implementation of a memory center at the technical school José Rocha Mendes, the problems with an available documentation are analyzed, as well as the existing gaps and how the oral history can be of great value to mitigate the difficulties generated by these gaps. Given the problem, the paper longs to discuss the paths to research and rescue the institution's memories. Working with interviews of personalities of the past and with the support of the remaining documents, became possible recover, at least in part, a past muted for fifty years.
