Resumen

 

Lato sensu graduate courses were created to train and prepare professionals for the labor market. The aim of this investigation is to discuss issues about these graduate courses, the quality of the courses offered, their disadvantages and contributions, given their relevance to the labor market. The retrieved studies were indexed in the databases: Web Science, Proquest, BVS and Scielo. The keywords used were: “lato sensu graduate”, “MBA”, “quality” and “employability”, 419 articles were retrieved, of which 31 were analyzed. The inclusion criteria: 2000 to 2019; scientific articles, open access for download; peer-reviewed journals; in Portuguese, English and Spanish; build and/or validated measurement instruments and quality of the literature. The main results indicate that professionals, when investing in graduate courses, believe in the possibility of insertion in professional life, ascension or career redirection. These programs have shown a loss of quality over time, and this is due to the lack of official monitoring and regulations, in addition to the lack of credibility in the learning offered. This study aims to contribute to the discussion and reflection on lato sensu graduate courses, the outdated education system and, in this regard, to raise new scientific concerns that may arise from this research survey.
