Amazon Free Course Offers 150 Thousand Vacancies in AI and Cloud in Brazil; See Who Can Participate and How to Register.
Amazon Launches Free Course in AI and Cloud with 150 Thousand Vacancies in Brazil
Amazon announced on Wednesday (26) the opening of 150 thousand vacancies for a free course in AI and cloud computing, offered in partnership with the educational platform Refuturiza.
Registrations take place online, throughout Brazil, and remain open until the end of 2026. The program combines recorded classes and live meetings, making it easier for those studying or working to access.
The initiative comes at a time when the country faces professional instability and a strong demand for technology specialists, which explains why the project has gained so much relevance.

The free course offers content on generative artificial intelligence, machine learning, cloud fundamentals, and digital transformation. In addition, participants receive a certificate upon completion, which strengthens their resumes and enhances their opportunities in the job market.
This training is part of the AWS Trains Brazil program, created by Amazon to train Brazilians in strategic areas for the country’s development. The company’s goal is ambitious: to train 1 million professionals by 2027, reinforcing the competitiveness of the national industry.
Why Does the Amazon Free Course Attract So Much Attention?
The growing demand for training in AI is not by chance. The field is experiencing rapid growth in Brazil and around the world, which increases competition for positions and raises salaries. Thus, even professionals facing instability or on temporary contracts see the free course as a real opportunity to improve their career prospects.
According to Refuturiza, “anyone interested in AI and cloud computing can register”. The institution emphasizes that the content caters to everyone from beginners to those seeking updates or professional transitions — a crucial point in a scenario of rapid technological change.
Hot Market: AI Professionals Can Earn Up to R$ 27 Thousand
Meanwhile, specialists emphasize that working with AI continues to be an excellent business. Recent data from the consultancy Catho shows that salaries in the field range from R$ 3,5 thousand to R$ 20 thousand under CLT contracts. On the other hand, the Robert Half 2026 Salary Guide indicates that:
- AI and machine learning specialists earn between R$ 17,9 thousand and R$ 23,5 thousand.
- AI engineers can receive between R$ 19,5 thousand and R$ 27,1 thousand.
Despite this, the lack of qualified labor continues to be the main obstacle. Therefore, the Amazon free course aims to reduce this gap.
Demand for AI Grows Over 20% Annually
Professor Cleber Zanchettin, from the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE), explains that the demand for AI professionals is continuously increasing. “The demand for AI specialists has been growing for more than five years, with an annual average above 20%. In the global scenario, it may exceed 30%”, he states.
He also warns that many of the professionals dealing with advanced technologies still lack solid training. “Even though AI is automating some tasks, it also creates new complex challenges that require specialized individuals to solve”, the researcher adds.
Thus, the Amazon free course becomes even more strategic, as it offers expanded access to content that previously required a significant investment.
What the Free Course Teaches, Practically
The program covers essential topics for anyone looking to take their first steps in AI and Cloud. Among them:
- Fundamentals of Generative AI
- Basics of Machine Learning
- Cloud Computing with AWS
- Applied Digital Transformation
- Completion Certification
Furthermore, the classes allow for a self-paced rhythm and offer live meetings for questions — something that greatly facilitates knowledge building.
How to Enroll in the Amazon Free Course
Registrations are open on the official AWS Trains Brazil website and can be made for free until the end of 2026. Registration takes just a few minutes, and access to the platform is granted almost immediately.
Thus, while the market continues to demand qualified professionals and pay better for those who master AI and Cloud, the course arrives as one of the largest free qualification opportunities ever offered in the country.
