This article aims to reflect about the appreciation of professors, and the (re)construction of the identity of Higher Education (HE) professionals in Angola. The study uses a qualitative approach, framed by an interpretative paradigm, using discourse and content analysis, articulated with normative documents and studies carried out by several researchers on this subject in different educational and social contexts in general, and particularly in the case of Angola, where two of the authors came from. The main goal of the study is to articulate the guidelines expressed in the national normative documents and the importance that different authors attach to this topic, with the analysis of the Angolan reality. Conclusions point to an understanding of this topic from an unilateral perspective, reinforcing the need to professionally value Higher Education professors in Angola.

Keywords : Higher Education; Identity; (Re)construction; Teaching profession; valorization.
