Industrial Automation technical course has vacancies in seven cities
Industrial Automation vacancies are distributed among the Birigui, Cubatão, Guarulhos, Salto, São José dos Campos, São Paulo, and Suzano campuses, all offering free training in the evening.
In total, each unit offers 40 vacancies, maintaining service primarily aimed at students and workers who need to study at night.
While the Birigui, Cubatão, São José dos Campos, São Paulo, and Suzano campuses offer courses lasting four semesters, other units adopt a shorter format.
In Guarulhos and Salto, for example, the training lasts three semesters and combines in-person classes with complementary distance activities.
The distribution of vacancies follows the rules of broad competition and quota reservations.
The public notice provides modalities for public school students, Black, Brown, Indigenous, Quilombola people, and people with disabilities, according to the criteria defined in the selection process.
Training prepares professionals for automated systems and modern industry
The course is offered in the concomitant or subsequent technical modality to high school.
This allows the enrollment of candidates who are currently in the 2nd or 3rd year of high school at another institution, as well as people who have already completed this stage.
The training is aimed at those seeking technical qualification to work with automated systems, process control, industrial equipment, and technologies applied to production.
The public notice, however, does not detail promises of employability or remuneration.
