Having another language besides Portuguese is today one of the main differentiators someone can have in the highly competitive job market. In order to assist people in this endeavor, a Brazilian state opened more than five thousand spots in language courses for those who wish to learn a new language for free.

The state in question is Pernambuco, which announced this Tuesday (06) the opening of registrations for free language courses. According to the local administration, the courses are offered by the Pernambuco Department of Education and Sports (SEE), totaling 5.9 thousand spots in all regions of the state.

English, French, Spanish, and German

Although English is the most popular foreign language, the government of Pernambuco will not only offer classes in this language. Courses in English, as well as French, Spanish, and German will also be offered.

Of the spots mentioned for the language course, 3.8 thousand are for the basic level and 2,170 for ongoing courses, aimed at candidates who already have some knowledge of the language.

In an interview with the program “Bom Dia PE” on TV Globo, the pedagogical technician of SEE, Sandra Elizabeth, emphasized the importance of providing opportunities for students in general, not just from the state, to gain proficiency in a second language, highlighting its relevance for employment and tourism.

“We need to give space for these students in general, not just from the state, but from the entire community, to show the importance of a second language, of proficiency in a second language for the needs related to work, tourism. All of this is very important,” said Sandra Elizabeth.

Who Can Register and Until When

People interested in participating in the language courses must be over 13 years old. To register for the in-person courses, it is necessary to observe the registration deadline:

  • Students from the state public network: Tuesday (6) and Wednesday (7);
  • Students from municipal and federal schools: Thursday (8);
  • Community at large: Friday (9) to February 15.

Registrations will be made at the secretary of a school that has a Language Studies Center (NEL) unit – the list of schools is available online. At that time, the interested person must attach:

  • Two 3×4 photos;
  • ID and CPF (if the candidate is underage, include documentation from the responsible party);
  • Declaration from the school/institution where they study (if they are a student);
  • Proof of residence.

On the 16th, after the maximum deadline for registrations, the government of Pernambuco will open enrollment for remaining and late spots.

In-Person Classes and a Two-Year Course Duration

The classes of the language courses will be in-person, as stated by the government. The expectation is that the courses, with a workload of 280 hours spread over two years, corresponding to 70 class hours each semester, will start on February 16 and 20.

For more information about the language courses, people can call two numbers provided by the government of Pernambuco: (81) 3183-9021 or (81) 3183-9033.
