The program is structured to prepare candidates for the Enem and traditional entrance exams. Students receive:
- Complete digital teaching materials
- Access to an exclusive learning platform
- Support from tutors
- Organized schedule until December 2026
As the course is extensive, students can organize their routines throughout the year, making it possible to balance studies with work or other activities.
Are There Other Modalities or Courses Within the Program?
Yes. The CECIERJ Foundation also maintains in-person centers in various regions of Rio de Janeiro. However, the online modality has the largest number of spots available for 2026.
The digital format allows for a broader reach of the program. Therefore, candidates who do not live near physical centers can participate normally.
The main focus is preparation for:
- Enem
- State entrance exams
- Selection processes for public universities
Does the Free Course from CECIERJ Provide a Certificate?
Yes. Students who meet the academic requirements and the required hours receive certification at the end of the academic period.
In addition to strengthening their resumes, the certificate proves participation in a public educational program for higher education preparation.
This can be relevant in future academic processes and also demonstrates commitment to education.
How to Enroll Before the Deadline?
Enrollment occurs exclusively through the official website of the CECIERJ Foundation and remains open until March 4, 2026. Candidates must attach their CPF, identity document, and proof of education in image format.
The selection will be made through document analysis and a public lottery based on the Federal Lottery, scheduled for March 14. The results will be announced on March 16, and accepted candidates must confirm their interest to secure their enrollment.
Thus, those who miss the deadline will be excluded from the process. Spots are limited, and the lottery may determine the next step in your academic journey.
