Join the Free Intensive English Course in the USA! Up to 270 Slots with International and Cultural Certificate. Sign Up!

The Announcement 27/2024, published by CAPES and the Fulbright Commission, presents a unique opportunity for English language teachers currently working in public basic education in Brazil. The Professional Development Program for English Language Teachers in the USA (PDPI) offers an intensive English course at American universities, providing enriching academic and cultural experiences.

With up to 270 slots available, the program aims to strengthen the linguistic and pedagogical skills of teachers, contributing to the excellence of English language teaching in the country. The PDPI seeks to develop four linguistic skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), as well as promote cultural contribution and the sharing of innovative methodologies. The free course lasts for six weeks, with activities including theoretical and practical classes, seminars, and assessments, conducted in-person at universities in the USA.

Slot Distribution and Modalities

The program provides 270 slots, distributed across three proficiency levels:

  • Basic English: up to 5 slots per state.
  • Intermediate English: up to 3 slots per state.
  • Advanced English: up to 2 slots per state.

Remaining slots will be redistributed regionally, prioritizing filling in neighboring states.

Process for the Free Course

Candidates must take the mandatory and free TOEFL ITP proficiency test. The score will determine the modality for which the candidate is eligible. Additionally, the selection process includes a thorough document analysis, prioritizing tenured teachers currently in active regular service.

The announcement also includes affirmative actions to correct regional asymmetries, redistributing idle slots as necessary.

Application Requirements

To apply, candidates must be tenured English language teachers in the public network of education, with the probationary period completed, and be actively teaching throughout the process. Interested individuals must be Brazilian nationals (or permanent residents), present their TOEFL ITP performance, and not have participated in previous editions of the PDPI or similar programs. Documentation such as identification, consent form, and valid passport is also essential.

Free English Courses

The program offers three modalities of courses, according to the candidate’s proficiency level:

  1. Basic English
  2. Intermediate English
  3. Advanced English

All courses include curricular components focused on developing methods and teaching materials for practical application in Brazil.

Applications

Applications for the free course must be made on the website of the Fulbright Commission by January 15, 2025. Don’t miss the chance to participate in this transformative program, which offers an internationally recognized certificate and significantly contributes to the professional development of English teachers in Brazil.
