To guide the investigative path, the research had as a theoretical-methodological assumption HistoricalDialectical Materialism (MHD) because it understands that it is from the theoretical-methodological construction that the studies of the object are materialized, which are constituted, since the real representation of the ideal of investigation is revealed through the saturation of the determinations that constitute its features. Thus, in order to grasp the concrete, a questionnaire and interviews were used, with the subjects being teachers who joined the EBTT between 2018 and 2023. The results indicated a change in the profile of new teachers: female presence, professional experience and level of qualification; knowledge of teaching based on pre-professional experiences, professional performance and continuing education; institution of teacher reception programs and provision of training courses as inducers of socialization; and, there is a tension between the type of organizational professionalism and an occupational professionalism that demarcates a fine line in the process of constructing teaching professionalism. It is concluded that the construction of the teaching professionalism of the teacher entering the EBTT is mediated by training, institutionality and work, which occur through socialization that comes from the constitutive basis of the understanding of teaching in Professional and Technological Education (EPT), the institutionality of the Federal Institutes and the historical materiality mediated by collaborative experience, institutional culture, traditions and other forms of expression
