This article discusses the social representations of a life project developed by young people undergoing professional training. Experience with young people has shown that, in the current context, there are hesitations, concerns about the future, uncertainties regarding professional choices and lack of direction. The objective is to present the results generated through research carried out with 90 young people between 18 and 24 years old, from public schools, who participate in a training and professional insertion program. Participation was voluntary and by adherence. For data collection, a Google Forms questionnaire with 12 closed questions and 3 open questions was used as an instrument. Themes such as life trajectory; professional insertion and aspects that impacted life projects in the pandemic context were addressed in this research and will be analyzed in the light of the Theory of Social Representations (TRS). In the results presented, it appears that the life project can give direction to the journey of life, and that it is necessary to plan, achieve goals and have an objective to go forward. With regard to the pandemic context, there was an adaptation of reality, at the same time that there was a delay in the learning process. The results revealed the vision of young people in relation to what they think about their life projects, the influence of family, friends, school, teachers, the meaning of these relationships in their professional path.
