AFONSO, Anthone Mateus Magalhães  and  GONZALEZ, Wania Regina Coutinho. Public policies for training technologist in Brazil. Roteiro. UNOESC [online]. 2018, vol.43, n.esp, pp.177-208. ISSN 2177-6059.  https://doi.org/10.18593/r.v0i0.16290.

The article analyzes the educational public policies directed to Technologist Training Degrees (CSTs) since the beginning of its offer in the 1960s, identifying, among other aspects, the conceptions of education adopted in this period of study and the confrontations of public institutions education to these policies. The contributions of Marisa Brandão, Acácia Kuenzer and Neise Deluiz are considered to carry out an analysis based on documentary research that identified the emergence of the short duration undergraduate courses and outlined the initial conception of the CSTs, following the national policies created from the 1990 until the second Government of President Fernando Henrique Cardoso (FHC). The results obtained revealed some findings, among which the following stand out: throughout the period included in this study, the legal model proposed for CSTs promoted an education focused on the labor market; the resumption of CSTs by the Governments of FHC signaled a public policy model that seemed to bring execution before planning, causing some disastrous effects, such as low acceptance of trained professionals and difficulty in continuing academic studies at the level of postgraduate studies and to occupy their professional work functions since the course offerings occurred before their complete regulation.
