The presence of indigenous students and their specific culture within the federal system of Vocational Education is still recent, considering the expansion of the Federal Institutes of Vocational Education, Science and Technology and the implementation of the Law of Quotas No. 12711 of 2012. The developed research presents the mapping of the demarcated indigenous lands and the campuses of the Federal Institutes present in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, as well as the number of indigenous student enrollments in each campus. In the Sertão campus of the Federal Institute of Rio Grande do Sul, there was a significant attendance of indigenous students. The research methodology was based on ethnographic interviews with managers, administrative staff, teachers and indigenous Kaingang students. Implications of the presence of the Kaingangs were identified in the institution’s bureaucratic and pedagogical processes.
