Sensibilizar professores para o desenvolvimento de carreira dos alunos: relato de uma experiência

The literature highlights the importance of conducting awareness sessions for teachers to promote positive and intentional influence, as teachers in the career paths of their students. This article describes an experience of holding an outreach session with teachers of basic education of a group of schools in northwest Portugal. We sought to clarify the concept of career development among teachers, make them aware of the school's role in the career development of students, and encourage activities that promote this process. This article shows the structure of the session, the strategies adopted to achieve the proposed objectives and reflections shared and discussed by teachers. The testimonials of those who took part on the awareness session were favorable. This experience illustrates the importance of conducting awareness sessions for teachers in this field, who can sustain the promotion of career development of students throughout schooling.
