Abstract: The professors of the Federal Institutes work in different levels of professional education. This reality requires knowledge of many rules, regulations and academic procedures that hinder the planning of these teachers, who generally were not trained to work in Professional and Technological Education (EPT), as indicated by studies by Costa (2012) and Baptaglin (2014). Knowing that technological advances cause changes in working and education area, studies by Levy (1999), Luck (2009), Paro (2010), Libâneo (2012), Kensky (2012), Cruz (2016) and Gomes (2017), reveal that Digital Technologies (DT) can be used by school management to: share information and knowledge, optimize processes and reduce academic formality. To facilitate teaching planning, this research aimed to develop a Teaching Guide, using DT, containing academic guidelines necessary for teaching at the Federal Institute of Goiás - Campus Itumbiara. This is an institutional, descriptive case study, with a quantitative / qualitative approach. The studied population is composed by teachers from technical courses integrated to high school education. Data was collected through questionnaires and documentary research. Quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive statistics (BARBETTA, 2012) and qualitative data was analyzed through Content Analysis (BARDIN, 2016). The results show that there is a lack of training offers for EPT and the use of a virtual learning environment for the development of a guiding is an alternative for school management to disseminate academic knowledge and guidance to the professors, to promote participatory management and offer quality professional education.  Keywords: Professional education.
