Gestão democrática na EPT: reflexões sobre a participação de egressos e egressas na vida institucional

Abstract

Although the existence of a regulation of monitoring of egresses as part of an institutional policy in IFPE is a reality, its implementation is not yet effective either by lack of knowledge of institutional agents or by the absence or insufficiency of requirements and instruments that allow the collection and transformation of data into useful information for the decision-making process of management, in the context of institutional evaluation. Based on that, the present investigative process works with the following strategies: investigation based on the methodology of "life stories" interviews to reveal to what extent graduates participate in the (democratic) management of IFPE; analysis of the legal framework and institutional regulations that make up the documental corpus of the monitoring of graduates to reveal if they meet the assumption in question and how available they are and the investigation through the application of electronic forms with the institutional management to reveal their degree of perception and attribution of relevance on the theme of the management of graduates. The data and information that emerged from the investigations explained above provided the basis for the construction of an educational product that, from the perspective of democratic management and internal institutional assessment, serves the management of the follow-up of former students as a relevant instrument for the participation of students and post students in the democratic management, within the IFPE, allowing this public to treat their perceptions and experiences as instruments of collaboration with the process of continuous improvement of the institution. The sample used was a set of three courses, among integrated technical courses and higher education courses at IFPE. As a result, there was a need for the expansion of effective instruments that foster the democratic participation of graduates in the institution and strategies to materialize their involvement in democratic management in a more active way, as well as a better monitoring of graduates. As a result, the following was created The Guide for the Viability of the Policy of Accompaniment of Graduates and Exes was created in order to search for a process of institutionalization of the accompanying management of graduates in IFPE's courses, broadening the perception about the aspect of institutional evaluation, as well as its relevance to institutional management, which brings together the different actors involved in this process of Accompaniment of graduates and egresses, such as: managers, teachers, students, technicaladministrative staff, and employers
