Abstract

This text intends to investigate the professional insertion of graduates who were participants of the Literacy Scholarship Program from 2011 to 2014 of the Pedagogy courses. Considering the importance of this program in the field of teacher education, this research intends to know and analyze, from the management team's perspective, the impact of the program at the moment of the professional insertion of those participants in Basic Education. For the research, initially, an exploratory study of the proposed theme and the analysis of the legal documents related to the programs were made. Then, in order to collect data, we have used questionnaires with closed-ended questions (egress students) and semi-structured interviews with the management team (director or coordinator) of the schools which have received the ones who students of the Literacy Scholarship program were. With the study and analysis of the collected data, we can state that the Literacy Scholarship program was relevant in the initial education by proposing the integration of the student of the pedagogy course in the professional reality, promoting the union between the university and the school environment.
