This investigation is part of a larger study that aimed to follow graduates of the Physical Education degree course at the Center for Physical Education and Sports (Cefd), of the Federal University of Espírito Santo (Ufes), from 1995 to 2010. The universe of this phase of the study was made up of a total of 395 graduates from 1995-2002. The instrument used was a questionnaire with open and closed questions which enabled a profile of the group surveyed to be drawn up. It systematized aspects of the formative and professional trajectory of these former students, through two themes: knowledge covered in initial training and career prospects and teaching professionalism. The researcher shares some concerns about the complex scenario in which questions about training and intervention in Physical Education are immersed, bringing data that reveal the academic and professional history of the graduates of the Physical Education course at Cefd/Ufes.
