This paper discusses questions about the Laboratório Aplicado de Administração Municipal (LAAM) in the context of courses associated to the Programa Nacional de Formação em Administração Pública (PNAP/UAB/Capes). This work can be justified by the need to use didactic and pedagogic practices with intensive use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in distance education mode. Therefore, we herein discuss the evolution of distance education in Brazil and the use of ICT in Public Management. As a theoretical basis, we have employed Kolb’s Experiential Learning Theory. Finally, LAAM and its applicability in conducting distance education activities is properly put into perspective. It is concluded that the implementation of the LAAM, based on the Kolb’s theoretical framework, may present a potential for improving the training of public managers, since the different learning styles will be present in the different stages of operation of the LAAM.
