Thus, we work on the socio-historical and ideological aspects that have guided the policy of profession education restructuring and planning to face challenges in recent years by a model of economic growth in transition to a developmental model bias, which overlaps the previous liberal vision. Key words: professional education, high school, educational policy. Artigo recebido em 04 out. 2011.
