The theme of this study is professional education. The objective is to reveal the advances promoted by the State Education Network of Rio Grande do Norte in order to expand and consolidate this educational offer. Methodologically, it is a qualitative approach, supported by bibliographical research, based on authors such as Kuenzer (2009), Manfredi (2002), Nascimento (2019) and Silva, K. (2017), among others, and documentary research (Laws, decrees and resolutions). We focus on the historical aspects of professional education in the State Education Network of Rio Grande do Norte, in order to locate the government actions for this modality, and the Brazil Professionalized Program (PBP) in the State Education Network of Rio Grande do Norte, as an inducer of the expansion and consolidation of this offer. The results indicate that, historically, governmental actions in this epistemic field have been timid and have followed the movement of the Federal Government, both in relation to the type of offer of technical courses as well as their disengagement, accordingly to the legislation; that the PBP contributed decisively to the resumption and expansion of professional education in the State Education Network of Rio Grande Norte, and that the State government has been making efforts to consolidate it.
