Para além dos muros da escola: a atuação do pedagogo nos recursos humanos de uma empresa em Recife

Abstract

The present work aimed to understand the role of the pedagogue in the business context and how their performance can intersect with the pedagogical practices discussed during their undergraduate studies. This qualitative research used a case study approach and questionnaires and interviews as data collection instruments. It was found that the activities carried out by pedagogues in the training and development sector are strongly influenced by the pedagogical principles acquired during their undergraduate studies. This study demonstrates that pedagogy education prepares professionals to work not only in formal educational settings but also in diverse contexts and non-formal teaching spaces, such as the corporate environment, where their skills and pedagogical foundations play a significant role in employee training and development. The research highlights the importance of Pedagogy students understanding the diversity of spaces and positions in which they can work, opening up possibilities for future reflections on the role of the pedagogue in various fields of practice.
