Graduates of training courses can provide information relevant to the educational institutions that trained them. By conducting research with graduates, it ispossible to gain knowledge about the professional trajectory of former students, raise up-to-datesocio-demographic data on the community, in addition to allowing the evaluation of the effectiveness of the training processes offered. The aim of this studywas to seek to understand whether sociodemographic characteristics of the study group, such as the gender and color of the graduates, generated influences on the salary income of the graduates in the labor market. The research sample is composed of 120 individuals graduated in Masters and/or Doctoral courses in the Interdisciplinary Postgraduate Program in Leisure Studies. To carry out the research, a semi-structured questionnaire was used as a data collection instrument, applied on an online platform. Andthe collected data were submitted to descriptive statistical analysis in the SPSSsoftware. The main results reveal that there are little significant wage differences between those who earn between 1 and 10 minimum wages. However, wage differences are observed in earnings above 15 minimum wages. It was identified in the analysis that most individuals who earn more than 15 minimum wages are men and/or individuals self-declared as white.
