SUMMARY:

In 2019, according to the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (INEP), there were 8,400 higher technology courses (HTCs) in Brazil, of which only 14% were in the public sphere (federal, state or municipal) the rest being in the private sphere. HTCs are a type of short-term degree, with a minimum load of 1,600 to 2,400 hours. With the aim of training with a focus on the job market, its offer has shown substantial growth in recent years. The objective of this research is to analyze the trends in the development of HTCs in Baixada Fluminense, a region of the State of Rio de Janeiro neighboring the state capital. The cities that make up this region emerged and grew irregularly, without urban planning, which consolidated Baixada Fluminense as an area with housing, social, basic sanitation, public safety and educational problems. Composed of municipalities governed by politicians who are unable to guarantee basic, quality public services for the population. Understanding how the expansion and diversification of HTCs occurred in this region is extremely important, as it allows us to understand whether this professional and technological education policy aims at the formation of a new workforce or whether it aims at the ethical and moral conformation of workers. in the face of unemployment and the precariousness of work and life in society. This is basic research, qualitative analysis, explanatory in nature, which falls into the category of documentary research whose theoretical and methodological reference is historical-dialectic materialism. The data collected allowed us to highlight the nature of the process of expanding and diversifying the supply of HTCs in Baixada Fluminense and confirmed our central hypothesis that these courses, lean, flexible and precarious, more than train people to appropriate technical and professional knowledge in an integrated way with scientific, technological and cultural knowledge of the world of work and life in society, in reality they fulfill the function of lean, flexible, pragmatic, immediate training, linked to the immediate demands of the job market. From this perspective, the HTCs offered have as their main objective not only to train new type of workers, but to conform these workers to the new volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous reality of the lean and flexible development model of capital, in order to make them permeable to the instability, heightened competitiveness and the precariousness of the job market, preparing them to take the blame for their precarious living conditions.
