After enrolling, students can access the teaching materials at any time, according to their availability. This allows for unique flexibility, especially for those with busy schedules, with the possibility of studying at their own pace, whether on weekends, in the evenings or at alternative times.
Why are MEC courses a great opportunity?
In addition to being completely free, the courses offered by the MEC have the credibility of a federal public institution, which guarantees seriousness and quality of the content offered. For those who want to improve their resume and open doors to new job opportunities, speaking English or Spanish can be an important differentiator.
