VOCATIONAL TRAINING AND LEISURE: ISSUES AND APPROACHES

Abstract

In the construction of this study, I emphasize that the professional training process should be based on principles that reflect political, intellectual, scientific and socially in struggle and tension of the recognition of diversity and cultural difference so that the action results in critical interventions. The theme of vocational training is understood through ambiguities that promote impacts on leisure practices through effective action. Thus, this article problematizes the training dimensions of the professional that acts in the leisure to reflect on the capacities necessary for the qualified and potentially educational performance. For this, we analyzed the conceptions of leisure appropriated by ten professionals who work in the school counterturn. Appropriate conceptions of leisure indicate an instrumental character. Formative processes must move towards a rethinking of praxis, the construction of intervention processes that foster and promote political formation and participation. Vocational training must be sustained on an inseparable basis of theory and practice, ie technical, operational, political, intellectual and cultural training. Just as considering the life history of the professional is relevant in the perspective of the performance.
