Abstract

This chapter examines the intersection of vocational education and network entrepreneurship, focusing on how the “S” System in Brazil facilitates connections between students and the job market, with particular emphasis on the role of the National Commercial Apprenticeship Service (Senac). The aim is to investigate how vocational education can contribute to building entrepreneurial networks and enhancing connectivity between students and the market. The methodology adopted involves an exploratory approach, focusing on literature research and case analysis, aimed at understanding the strategies and programs implemented by the institution under study. Regarding the theoretical background: Castells. (2022). A sociedade em rede. Paz e Terra; Law No. 9841/1999, which establishes the Microenterprise and Small Business Statute and provides for differentiated, simplified, and favored legal treatment. As discussed more comprehensively in the final considerations, we can highlight the significant contribution of Vocational Education not only in developing relevant skills for individuals both personally and professionally, but also in promoting social inclusion and facilitating students’ access to professional networks and business opportunities. This underscores the vital role of public policies and educational initiatives focused on entrepreneurship as a strengthening agent within the country’s entrepreneurial ecosystem.
