THE IMPLEMENTATION OF COURSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULTS AT THE FEDERAL INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION, SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY IN RIO GRANDE DO SUL

Abstract

Youth and Adult Education has been gaining prominence in Brazilian social policies, as it seeks to provide several Brazilian citizens with the completion of Basic Education. But the creation and implementation of courses in this modality is a challenge for all educational institutions. Thus, this article presents how the implementation of course offerings for young people and adults occurred at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Rio Grande do Sul (IFSUL), with the objective of describing the development of the project in the educational institution and the challenges faced throughout the process. As a result, of the 1219 students enrolled, 66% were successful and completed the course, demonstrating that the implementation of courses for young people and adults is a challenge for any and all educational institutions, especially for those that prioritize quality and emancipatory education for the student.
