Abstract

The organization of work in multiprofessional teams is a well-established practice in various knowledge areas, especially in health. However, few studies on teams are found in the field of education – particularly with regard to studies that address the peculiarities of this sort of initiative at the Federal Institutes of Education, Science, and Technology (FI). This article aims to discuss Multiprofessional Teams in Education (MPTED) in the context of FI and to contribute to the construction of knowledge about this type of initiative. Constructivist Grounded Theory is the methodology used to analyze a set of articles, theses, and dissertations whose authors or co-authors are pedagogues, psychologists, social workers, educational affairs technicians, nurses, student assistants, and other technical-administrative professionals in education who work or have worked in the FI. The collected documents present research and experience reports which have identified aspects of the work of the MPTED, enabling the formulation of analytical categories and the construction of a conceptual interpretation of such aspects. The identified categories include: Denomination and Composition of Multiprofessional Teams in the FIs; Performance of Multiprofessional Teams and their Role in Student Assistance; Integration of the Performance of Multiprofessional Teams with Public Policies and Challenges; and Possibilities and Relevance of Multiprofessional Teams. The MPTEDs play a fundamental role in promoting comprehensive education by articulating different fields of knowledge in their actions, overcoming fragmented pedagogical practices and strengthening a unified and cohesive effort to guarantee students the right to quality education. 

Keywords: Multiprofessional Performance. Administrative Technician in Education. Comprehensive Education. Student Assistence. Grounded Theory.
