The ELAS Constroem Project is offering 80 spots for a free course in construction, exclusively for women who wish to enter or advance in one of the sectors that drives the economy the most. The application period runs until February 27, and the inaugural class is scheduled for March 7, 2026, in Campo Grande.

In total, there are four professional training programs with classes of 20 students each, combining online classes with in-person practical activities at the SENAI Construction School.

The initiative not only expands women’s access to the sector but also promotes financial independence and helps meet the demand for skilled labor in the state.

What Courses Are Available?

In this new phase of the ELAS Constroem Project, there are four options for free courses in construction. Each program has a specific workload and a practical focus, preparing participants for direct work in the job market.

Check out the complete list:

Bricklayer with 160 hours
Ceramic Tile Installer with 160 hours
Bobcat Operator with NR 18 with 40 hours
Construction Budgeting with 40 hours

While theoretical classes will be conducted online, practical activities will take place in person at the SENAI Construction School, using the Learning to Build methodology. This way, students have direct contact with real situations in the construction routine, which strengthens learning and increases professional confidence.

Each class will have 20 spots, totaling 80 opportunities in this edition.

Who Can Apply?

The ELAS Constroem Project is specifically aimed at women interested in working in the construction sector, whether starting a new career or enhancing existing skills.

The aim is, therefore, to promote productive inclusion and increase women’s presence in different areas of the sector.

To participate, it is necessary to complete the pre-application through the profile analysis form, available starting February 9, 2026.

This process allows the organization to better understand the candidates and provide adequate support during the training.

The selection process considers the information provided in the form, aligning the participants’ profiles with the characteristics of each course. This way, the project ensures the spots are directed to those who genuinely want to qualify and work in the area.

How Does the Selection Process Work?

The selection process starts with filling out the ELAS Constroem form, an essential step for profile analysis. Based on this information, the organizing team evaluates the candidates’ data and defines the participants for each class.

Afterward, the selected participants will be notified to confirm their enrollment and participation in the inaugural class, scheduled for March 7, 2026, in Campo Grande.

The project is promoted by Sinduscon MS, in partnership with Semu and Sintracom CG. Additionally, it has the support of the Brazilian Chamber of Construction Industry and SENAI, as part of the Building Talents program.

This institutional collaboration enhances the initiative’s credibility and strengthens the participants’ integration into the job market.

In the first module of the ELAS Constroem Project, 40 women were qualified in three courses, demonstrating the direct impact on income generation and the professional transformation of the participants. Now, with the opening of new classes, the expectation is to further expand these results.

How to Apply?

Women interested in participating in the free construction course must apply until February 27, 2026. The pre-application phase includes filling out the profile analysis form, which is essential for selecting candidates. The inaugural class will take place on March 7, 2026, in Campo Grande.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Scientists considered detonating 213 nuclear bombs in the Sahara to create an artificial sea the size of El Salvador, with each explosion being a hundred times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, and the goal was to generate more energy than Egypt’s largest hydroelectric plant.
