Abstract

This article  approaches about the History of Instituto Federal Goiano - Campus Iporá, implementation, founded on february the 1st 2010.  In this article, we aim to comprehend the historical context of the technical institution, so we conduct a qualitative research. Firstly, we present the contextualization of the municipality of Iporá and the interiorization process of implementation of Federal Institutes. Then, we interview some pioneering workers from the Campus to show their narratives. These subjects represent the  categories of teachers, Administrative Assistant and school manager. We used semi-structured interview as a guide to interview the staff members. Furthermore, in order to proceed with this study, we based on Silveira (2007), Delgado (2007), Clandinin e Connelly (2011), Halb­wachs (2013), Moran (2014), among others. The subjects’ narratives allowed us to know different points of view, expectations and experiences from whom started working in this institution in 2010 and still work nowadays. Thus, throughout the narratives, we show the subjects’ memory and the History in the face of the implementation challenges, the way followed during the ten years of the institution and also the relation between the implementation and the local development.
