Postgraduate stricto sensu programs are important for the instruction of researchers, as for the production and dissemination of knowledge and development of technologies. This paper aims to raise the factors that lead researchers to accredit themselves (or not) in such programs, even if they meet with the certain conditions to make it. The methodology used consisted in a questionnaire made to 578 teachers of public institutions of higher education in the state of Goiás (UFG, UEG, and IFGoiano IFGoiás) who had at least one scientific article published in the last five years (2009 to 2014). The total of 122 professors (21%) answered the questionnaire. It was observed that 94% of the respondents are interested in participating in post-graduate studies programs. What most influenced the researches in not accreditation in postgraduate programs were organizational factors, however, the factors related to work, the organization of the group combined with personal problems demonstrate a large influence on that decision as well.
