SUMMARY:

This research aims to analyze public policies for the democratization of Higher Education, focusing on the Open University of Brazil System (UAB) and its contributions to the initial training and professional development of graduates from the Pedagogy Course, in the period from 2013 to 2018, at the University of Brasília and the State University of Montes Claros. Methodologically, this research adopted a qualitative approach, choosing a comparative study of the UAB System in two Brazilian public universities, with literature review, documentary analysis, and the application of questionnaires to graduates of distance Pedagogy courses at UnB and Unimontes. The data emphasize that Distance Education provided graduates with opportunities for higher education, entry into the labor market, improvement of working conditions, income, and access to the knowledge, competencies, and skills necessary for the teaching profession, with most of them working in Basic Education. The general perception of the graduates confirms the social importance of the UAB system in the democratization of Higher Education and its contributions to initial teacher training and professional development, advocating the need for the continuity and strengthening of policies that ensure not only access, but also permanence, quality of training, and follow-up of the educational and professional trajectory of graduates after course completion. The results of this research demonstrate that the UAB system, in partnership with federal entities, constitutes a strategic public policy that promotes the democratization of Higher Education and meets the demand for teacher training at higher education level in Brazilian public universities.
