• Abstract:

  The right choice of a profession makes the individual enjoy the utmost happiness and is endowed with skills that earn his choice. The theme on the process of professional guidance in the training of basic level teachers in a training institute in the city of Nampula, takes shape in one of the teacher training institutes, in the city of Nampula (Mozambique), due to the fact that it is one of the places where the guidance processes implicitly occur, the possible models of intervention in professional guidance in that area, and the training models recognized in the SNE. In our understanding, guidance aims to direct the trainee towards a professional framework in an appropriate way, with skills appropriate to the profession, with qualities appropriate to the profession. With the aim of analyzing the process of professional guidance in the training of basic level teachers in a training institute. The research used a qualitative methodology focusing on the interpretative paradigm, in the case study modality. In terms of techniques, we used observation and interviews to better assess the veracity of our research. We had a total of 10 participants, including trainees and trainers in the initial training of basic education teachers. As a result of the research, it was concluded that the guidance and/or professional framework for basic education teachers in that institution is carried out through the curriculum that accompanies the training of graduates throughout training, periodic meetings and through verbalization. In this sense, trainees are framed in their career, with the intention that they will gain experience in the school field. It is suggested that professional guidance be included in the educational system; that is, that PB is integrated into the curricula of educational and school teaching. This will allow children and young students to learn to make right and balanced choices for professionalization.
