Check out the free online courses offered by the Univesp Virtual University. There are 370 vacancies in areas such as tourism, soft skills and information technology!
The Virtual University of the State of São Paulo (Univesp) just launched a portal offering 370 vacancies in more than 40 free online courses (EAD). This new website, called “Oportunidade Já”, offers training in various areas, from tourism and logistics to technology and soft skills development.
Created to serve students, college entrance exam candidates and anyone interested, the portal emerged from the collaboration between Univesp, private companies, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) and public agencies. This partnership was planned to facilitate professional training and expand the offer of qualifications through online courses (EAD) completely free.
Collaboration with public and private bodies
Participating institutions publish their vacancies on the platform, allowing free access to training for a wide range of interested parties. Between July and September, companies and CSOs were able to register to offer courses on the portal, with a focus on improving employability and offering new professional qualifications.

Access to free courses on the Univesp website
To enroll in courses, the interested party can access the program website, which centralizes all information about courses and partner institutions. The content is offered in a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), which has video classes, digital libraries, teaching materials and interactive forums so that students can engage directly with facilitators.
