History

The Confea officially came out with that name on December 11, 1933, through Decree No. 23,569, promulgated by the then President of the Republic, Getúlio Vargas and considered landmark in the history of professional and technical regulation in Brazil. In its current conception, the Federal Council of Engineering and Agronomy is governed by Law 5,194 of 1966, and also represents geographers, geologists, meteorologists, technologists of these modalities, industrial and agricultural technicians and their specializations, in a total of hundreds of professional titles. The Confea watches over the social and human interests of the whole society and, based on this, regulates and supervises the professional exercise of those who work in the areas it represents, with reference to respect for the citizen and nature. In its registers, the Confea / Crea System has registered around one million professionals who account for a considerable part of the Brazilian GDP, and move an increasingly demanding and demanding labor market in the specializations and knowledge of the technology, fed intensely by the technical discoveries And scientific aspects of man. The Federal Council is the maximum body to which a professional can appeal with regard to the regulation of professional practice.

Areas of Jurisdiction

This work is the one of a historical research, made from documents received and dispatched by the Federal Council, from 1934 to 1977, as well as diverse publications about them and Confea Resolutions. The study was developed in 1992, under our Coordination in quality, the time, of the Chief of the Documentation Department, with a significant contribution by the Historian Gustavo Ponce de Leon Soriano Lago. The rescue of the previous denominations of the Regional Councils of Engineering, Architecture and Agronomy is of fundamental importance to identify the origins of the documents produced by the Confea / Crea System and to keep registered part of this memory. We also point out that Confea has been constantly consulted on the previous denominations of Creas for various reasons, and this is also one of the justifications for this work.
