Indicadores de gestão do ensino técnico federal e sua correlação com eficiência acadêmica: uma análise da relação entre o desempenho discente e os investimentos ocorridos com a política pública de expansão dos institutos federais da região Nordeste entre 2012 e 2016

Abstract

The creation of the Federal Institutes of Education, Science and Technology (IFEs), as a public policy for the expansion of technical and technological education, has led to an exponential increase in the resources applied to them. In order to monitor the performance and evaluation of results regarding the allocation of material and human resources, the Federal Audit Office (TCU) established academic indicators that express the results of the expansion of supply and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of federal institutes of professional education. The objective of this article is to analyze, in the Federal Institutes of the Northeast Region between the years of 2012 and 2016, the correlation between the Academic Efficiency Rate of the graduating students - quality indicator that measures the capacity to achieve success among the students that finish the courses - and the other management indicators established since 2005 by the TCU for the Institutions of the Federal Professional and Technological Education Network - EPCT. As for the methodology, the qualitative-quantitative analysis was used to better meet the research objective, which leads to the appreciation of measurable numerical data, without interfering with the analysis of motivational and interpretative factors. The results showed that there is no relation between the Quality Indicator of the Academic Efficiency of Graduating students and the management indicators established by the TCU in the sample analyzed.
