Tecnologias e redes informacionais e suas implicações sobre a força de trabalho no Brasil

The use of information technology networks and its impact on the labor force by means of continued education at a distance is but a few of the most appropriate ways of carrying out an analysis and identification – all assisted by theoretical construct – of the changes that are now taking place in our so called information/knowledge society. It has been, therefore, the main purpose of this work to analyze the impact on the use of information technology networks as stemming from the understanding and specificities and the importance of the process of continued education at a distance aiming at professional improvement of both individuals and organizations in Brazil. Due to its descriptive nature, the present survey is based on a methodological multiproceeding approach that investigates both quantitative and qualitative aspects as shown by the questionnaire with open and closed questions that was put to professionals doing the courses under analysis. The data gathered were processed by the technique of Content Analysis and by the Statistical Package for Social Science, making it possible the construction of a Multi-method Evaluation Modality, the result of which not only produced some e-learning assessment pointers but also revealed some of the major implications as to the use of information technology networks in continued education at a distance and its impact on the improvement of the Brazilian labor force and organizations. Key-words: Technologies and information networks, education at a distance, continued qualification, multi-method evaluation modality.
