Public managers and educators embark on a journey aimed at transforming technological education in Brazil

The Salão Nobre at FGV EAESP was the setting for the start of classes for the new special class of the Professional Master's Degree in Management and Public Policy (MPGPP), held in partnership with Fundação Itaú. The initiative seeks to train public managers and educators committed to the development of effective policies for technological education, connecting technical training, youth, and regional realities.

According to the program coordinator, Professor Marco Antonio Carvalho Teixeira, the sector is expected to receive more than R$ 2 billion in investments over the next few years. The selection process attracted 2,600 applicants, resulting in 45 being selected—35 women and 33% black and brown people—representing all regions of Brazil.

The opening ceremony was attended by Tales Andreassi (FGV EAESP), Eduardo Saron (Fundação Itaú), Priscila Cruz (Todos Pela Educação), Sandra Grützmacher (MEC), and Professor Fernando Abrucio, the class's pedagogical coordinator. In their speeches, the participants highlighted the transformative role of education as a driving force for a more just, prepared, and innovative Brazil.

With this class, MPGPP consolidates its commitment to the public sector, training leaders with theories and tools capable of promoting inclusive, integrated, sustainable, and transformative educational policies.
