The professional choice is a process of evolution that, if carried out in a planned and conscious way, affects positively the quality of life. The aim of this research is to present a professional guidance inside the school, using as a theoretical basis the socio-historical approach and a scale of attitudes as method of evaluating the results. There was verified the importance of an instrument to measure the processes of vocational guidance, which allows to measure if the students have been benefited with the involvement. However, the most suitable is that the practice should be done during the classes, with the participation of the teachers, in order that the theme should be worked through out a cross-school curriculum.
