The objective of this study was to delineate the profile of the research produced in the post-graduation lato sensu in Audiodescripción, and of its participants, seeking to detect relations between the academic / professional training and areas of interest and performance. Considering that audiodescription consists of a communicational accessibility feature that enables the comprehension and translation of images in words, as recommended by the Brazilian Law on the Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities, targeting the visually impaired; the postgraduate degree offered in the face and distance modality had both the aim of contributing to professional training and highlighting the potential of audio description in promoting the inclusion of people with disabilities in society. In this perspective, the work of conclusion of the course shows a concern to promote this inclusion, predominating themes related to cultural artifacts such as theater, dance and cinematographic art.
