• Abstract:

  Law 11.892/2008 created the Federal Network of Professional, Scientific and Technological Education in Brazil, which includes the Federal Institutes of Education, Science and Technology (IFs). In this context, a documentary analysis of articles, dissertations and books was used to build a knowledge base for the beginning of the epistemological construction of how educational management can influence the processes of improving Professional and Technological Education. Taking the creation and evolution of the Federal Network of Education, Science and Technology as a starting point, with a focus on the IFs, we briefly discuss work as an educational principle and how effective educational management can improve the institution's climate, structure, procedural flows and final results in terms of teaching, research and extension activities. In view of the above, we dealt with the positive points involved in good educational management in a bibliographical manner. We conclude that the Federal Institutes were founded on strong theoretical foundations, but it is important to emphasize that there is a long way to go to consolidate Professional and Technological Education (EPT) in Brazil. However, the improvement of the pedagogical and educational methodologies present in the (IF's) depends on a continuous process of improving the institutional activities and flows that strengthen the educational management model adopted by the educational institutions that offer EFA. Providing society with more complete individuals capable of managing their professional lives, making them individuals with an organic intellect.
