SILVA, Cristiano Pereira da e CONSTANTINO, Paulo Roberto Prado. Course coordinators in vocational education: a research about training and insertion in State Technical Schools of São Paulo. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.71, pp.1535-1562. Epub 26-Jan-2022. ISSN 1981-416X. https://doi.org/10.7213/1981-416x.21.071.ds03.
The research intends to outline the training of the coordinators of vocational education courses in the State Technical Schools of São Paulo, by exploring aspects related to the historical trajectory and initial and lifelong training, within the scope of a public education system. Through a documentary and field qualitative research of the survey type, carried out among 128 course coordinators of 75 Etecs, it is inserted in the possibility of expanding a still incipient literature on the coordination of courses in vocational education, pointing out results on the training and insertion of these subjects, unveiling existing gaps, little explored training opportunities, the constitution of the focused group. These results, in relation to the training of course coordinators, highlighted the need for alignment of initial and lifelong training to topics related to legislation and information management, pedagogical and managerial aspects of schools. As for its insertion, it was pointed out the imperative allocation and distribution of sufficient hours for a better performance of its activities, as well as the importance of the varied incentives for the development of the coordination activity. In perspective, this actor has emerged as essential for the processes and results of state technical schools, since his first historical recognition in 1988 and, subsequently, following the movements of strong institutional expansion in the beginning of the 21st century.
