MANFREDI, Silvia Maria. Uma política de certificação profissional orientada para a inclusão social. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.30, pp.27-48. ISSN 1981-0431.
This article contains the analysis of the recent experiences carried out by the Department of Professional Certification and Guidance of the Office of Public Policies for Labor, of the National Labor Ministry of Brazil (2003-2007) geared to create inclusive policies for professional qualification, certification and counseling. The model of certification that was developed was built in a participative and negotiated manner. Conceptually, it intends to be a counterpoint to certain hegemonic orientations. From a juridical institutional viewpoint, it aimed to set up the National System of Professional Qualification. The project was organized according to an inclusive perspective, as it aimed to be, besides a mechanism for work accreditation, a paved avenue for entering/returning to the formal system of education or to give access to continuing educational programs. The model was tested in two experimental professional categories.
