Objective: to present and analyze an overview of high school technical professional education in the health area, considering courses offered, enrollments and graduates, in the state of São Paulo, from 2010 to 2015, with an emphasis on nursing. Methodology: longitudinal, retrospective research, also characterized as a case study, based on the historical-dialectical perspective, including 24 courses from the National Catalog of Technical Courses (third version), based on data from the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (INEP) - MEC, from 2010 to 2015. Results: 23 of these courses were offered, with an increase in offer from 2010 to 2015. Nursing is the course with the most offer, enrollments and graduates. The presence of the private sector and the subsequent modality is predominant. Conclusions: This conformation is strengthened in the neoliberal political scenario, contradicting the need for training that supports the strengthening of the SUS, based on social needs, as well as promoting worker emancipation.
