The research discusses the topic of Competencies Management, more precisely on the development of Learning Paths. According to Freitas (2002), Learning Paths are alternative and flexible paths to promote people development, and it emerges as an alternative to traditional training model, allowing greater autonomy for professionals. Thus, the research aimed to propose and evaluate if the methodology of behavioral decomposition proposed by Santos (2009) is feasible for the development of learning paths. The research took place at the Universidade Federal do Pará, with the participation of 68 technical workers from the staff belonging to the position of Administrative Assistant. We have proposed to these workers two learning paths, such as a classroom course on Portuguese & Official Writing and an online course on Portuguese & Official Writing. Results of learning and competencies evaluations indicate that the methodology of behavioral decomposition is feasible for the development of learning paths. The research is exploratory, and was conducted in two phases to obtain the results
