Abstract: All the knowledge produced so far is the result of several problems that resulted in positive and negative pedagogical applications. Graduation as the first stage of Higher Education, inserts graduates and professionals who will work in Basic Education, in view of the challenges of the public education network, in the school reality, in the future work context, so that the initial training of these professionals contemplates the application with the world of work. In this sense, the objective of this work is to investigate the relevance of Graduate Programs at the Strict sensu level (master's and doctorate) in the development of educational practices that elucidate regional development. For that, we used field research that had 15 participants, composing the data collection. The data reveal that the participants recognize the Strict sensu as a promoter of the development of teaching and learning processes and in the investigation of problems that affect a certain region in which the program covers. In addition, participants point out the need to include more researchers in these programs, envisioning successful practices..
