Mapeamento Sistemático da Literatura Científica sobre Egressos de Cursos Técnicos e Superiores de Informática e Empregabilidade

Abstract

This article presents results regarding systematic mapping research. The aim was to obtain knowledge about the relationship between professional qualification and employability potential of computer graduates in the region where the training is offered. To this end, 11 scientific publications from 2011 to 2018 were selected, whose research field included responses from graduates of technical or higher education courses in Informatics. Data analysis was guided by the Historical-Dialectic Materialist method. The results show that, in a broad sense, the employability of computer professionals is high; graduates from cities with a greater industrial-technological network, in almost 100%, get good jobs in this area, but those from cities in opposite situations, almost in the same proportion, work outside the training area or are unemployed. Thus, it was possible to see that only technical or higher education does not guarantee employment and development in and in the location where the training was carried out, as the latter also depends on the existence of companies in the same area and on other social factors.
