ABSTRACT
This article analyzes Paebes Alfa, the literacy assessment program of the state of Espírito Santo, between 2009 and 2017. Therefore, a set of ten criteria was proposed for analysis and description of the program, something not found in the educational literature, whose mapping showed the absence of studies about this theme. The study included detailed bibliographic and documentary research, as well as interviews with managers and specialists who worked in the program throughout are the analyzed period. It is expected that this work will be able to serve as a starting point for researches about literacy assessment programs in Brazil, helping to fill the current gap in the specialized literature.
