SUMMARY:

The polish sociologist Zygmunt Bauman (2010) states that today we live in the context of Liquid Modernity. For the author, in this liquid-modern consumerist and individualist social arrangement, the idea of 'education for life' was neglected and dissipated. As for the 'work' theme, the current narrative is that education aims to “prepare” the subject to meet the expectations of the labor market, that is, knowledge is valued according to its usefulness. Based on this hypothesis, this study, which is part of the research line Formative Processes and Educational Policies, in the GEPEFOPPE research group, of the Graduate Program in Education, of the Federal Institute of Catarinense (IFC) - Campus Camboriú, started from the following problem-question: How the do graduates of Information Technology (IT) courses at IFC - Campus Camboriú experience the training processes and the relationship between education and work in the supposed context of Liquid Modernity? From a qualitative approach, from an analytical-descriptive perspective, with an interpretative characteristic, this research had the following specific objectives: a) To characterize the profile of graduates of IT higher education courses at IFC - Campus Camboriú; b) Describe how the process of choosing a higher course by the trainees was carried out; c) Identify the trainees' notes about the curricular organization of the course and their perceptions about the 'good' teacher, the 'good' class and the relationship between theory and practice; and d) Describe the trainees' expectations about 'work' and professional performance. As research instruments, the semi-structured questionnaire and the focus group were used. The data analysis procedure was based on Bardin's (2011) content analysis technique. The theoretical discussion was based, among others, on Bauman (1999, 2001, 2005, 2009, 2010, 2013), Antunes (2007, 2020), Cunha (2010), Demo (2000) and Vanzuita (2017). The results show that, for the most part: trainees believe that the choice of their respective courses was their own decision, without the influence of third parties; that graduation training, by itself, does not have a real alignment with its performance in the labor market; that the curricular organization and the subjects of its courses are, for the most part, little updated for professional practice; that the 'good' teacher is one who has characteristics such as empathy, for example; that the 'good' class is one that develops from professional practices; and that, in relation to professional practice, graduates were more inclined to prefer solid and safe performance.
