The aim of this study is to show the role of Higher Education Institutions when they implement Information Technology Sequential Courses. Sequential courses were implemented with the objective of developing specific job skills in students. The methodology consists of the literature review about vocational education and data gathering of a Higher Education Institution. The statistical data from the Ministry of Education show that in 1999 there were 178 courses being offered all over Brazil, whereas at the end of 2002 there were 612, which shows that sequential courses have been well accepted by Brazilian students. Thus, this research considers that the main education elements involve the Information Technology Sequential Courses, the first one being implemented in this public university.
