Abstract: The purpose of the text is to reflect on the relationship between the Professional Education Policy and the productive sector based on normative documents from Brazil and Portugal. Professional Education is a teaching modality that, over the decades, presents itself as a challenge, since, on the one hand, there is a group of researchers who defend the integral formation of man and on the other there are the normative documents that legitimize this training process aimed at qualifying the workforce to meet the demands of the productive sector in different historical contexts. This polarity has been observed for several centuries in the researchers' discourse and in the record contained in the normative documents dealing with the theme. This article had as methodological procedures the bibliographic and documentary research. The main results point out that even though Professional Education reinforces the purpose of the capitalist system in meeting the demands to accompany the production, distribution and commercialization of goods, services and products, it is possible to offer comprehensive training for students observed in both countries.

Keywords : Professional education; Productive sector; Comprehensive training.
