A LDB e a nova educação profissional

Resumen

LDB presents a new professional education paradigm which articulates the various dimensions of education, work, science and technology. This new approach supposes excelling the traditional professional education understanding as an assistance policy instrument or a linear adjustment to the labor market requirements. This new professional education is no longer a diversified part of the secondary schooling, but complementary to the basic education and committed with results, in terms of development of professional competencies for the laborability. This is the new challenge for the technical schools, to organize and carry out school curricula centered on professional competencies to be developed and no longer on previously fixed course minima. When overcoming this challenge, the technical school will begin to be a technological reference center on its actuation area, for employees, employers and the society in general".
