Immersion IA Offers Practical Content, Exclusive Community, and Recognition for the Best Projects; Classes Start on May 12. Check the Step-by-Step Guide on How to Register to Fill the Spots in Alura and Google’s Online Artificial Intelligence Course.
The largest technology education platform in Brazil, Alura, in partnership with Google, announced the opening of 180,000 spots for a free online artificial intelligence course aimed at professionals from all fields. Named “Immersion IA,” the initiative is 100% free, offers a participation certificate, and will take place from May 12 to 16, 2025, with registrations open until May 11.
Focusing on the Gemini tool, Google’s most advanced artificial intelligence, the course promises practical and accessible training, with no prior experience in technology, programming, or AI required. The content will be delivered by leading experts in the field, such as Valquíria Alencar, Fabrício Carraro, and Luciano Martins, representing both Alura and Google DeepMind.
Free Online Artificial Intelligence Course with Real-World Application
During the five days of Immersion IA, participants will learn how to:
-
Become a professional in logistics, mechanics, computer science, chemistry, or gastronomy at the Federal Institute: Ifes opens more than 1,000 spots in free technical courses with selection without an exam.
-
Take a 100% online and free course at Itaú: Foundation releases 156 options with certificates, registrations open for all of Brazil, unlimited access, areas such as technology, education, and management, and a flexible schedule without tutoring.
-
Senai will pay up to R$ 700 per month for those who take free technical courses: there are 12,000 open positions across Brazil and training with access to the technology market.
-
Take one of the free courses from SENAI! There are over 100 options for training completely online and with a guaranteed certificate in Logistics, Mechanics, Business, Energy, Safety, and much more; see how to enroll and boost your resume with SENAI EAD.
- Create efficient prompts for interactions with AI;
- Automate professional tasks using generative AI tools;
- Develop autonomous agents that make decisions independently.
According to Alura, the course was designed to meet the growing market demand for professionals skilled in emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence. According to data from the World Economic Forum, the demand for specialists in AI and Big Data is expected to grow 60% by 2027, making the subject a priority in the professional development of various categories.
AI Course with Certificate and Support Community
In addition to the technical classes, participants will have access to an exclusive learning community, with support from instructors, study groups, and networking opportunities. The aim is to bring participants closer to the reality of multidisciplinary teams and innovative environments that already use artificial intelligence in their daily work.
For Fabrício Carraro, one of the coordinators of the immersion and leader of the course area at Alura, the project’s differentiator lies in the balance between theory and practice:
“Our goal is to provide training that goes beyond the content. We want students to leave the course knowing how to apply AI in practice and create real solutions based on what they learned. The course is free, but it provides a value that is hard to find even in paid training.”
Recognition for the Best Projects and Professional Highlight
Another highlight of the online artificial intelligence course is the practical final challenge. Students who participate in the immersion will be invited to develop real projects using the knowledge acquired. The best projects will be awarded and recognized, with highlights on social media and at Alura events.
The aim is to promote not only technical learning but also creativity, problem-solving, and critical thinking — essential skills for those looking to stand out in the new market shaped by digital transformation and the use of generative AI.
An Accessible Course with No Prerequisites and Impact on Your Resume
The course from Alura and Google stands out for being inclusive and accessible: it does not require any prior knowledge in programming or data science. This broadens the reach of the training, making Immersion IA an excellent opportunity for beginners, professionals in HR, marketing, education, finance, customer service, among other areas.
According to the platform itself, more than 300,000 people have participated in previous editions of free immersions, with reports of professional growth and new opportunities gained after the course.
