Uefs Opened 300 Slots for Free Python Courses Focused on Programming and Professional Qualification for Students and Teachers.

The State University of Feira de Santana (Uefs) opened 300 slots for free programming courses in Python, aimed at students and teachers from high school.

Enrollment is open until January 31 and must be done via an online form. The initiative takes place in Feira de Santana, with both online and in-person classes, thus broadening opportunities for professional qualification and access to programming.

From the beginning, the project prioritizes the democratization of technology education. By offering free courses, Uefs increases the exposure of young people and educators to the world of programming, an area increasingly valued in the job market.

Introductory Python Course as an Entry Point

The introductory Python course, often mistakenly called Phyton by beginners, directly caters to those with no prior programming experience. Additionally, Uefs distributed 300 slots across different classes, with schedules defined by tutors, facilitating participation from diverse audiences.

With a total workload of 90 hours, the course covers the fundamentals of the language, programming logic, and problem-solving. Classes take place twice a week, mostly online, but there are also in-person classes for students living in Feira de Santana.

Professional Qualification and Educational Impact

By investing in free programming courses, Uefs reinforces its role in promoting professional qualification. Mastering Python opens opportunities in fields such as technology, education, and data analysis, in addition to developing skills such as logical reasoning and intellectual autonomy.

Moreover, classes are taught by undergraduate students in Computer Engineering at Uefs, under the guidance of the project coordination. Thus, the initiative benefits both participants and instructors, who gain practical and pedagogical experience.

Advanced Training in Competitive Programming

In addition to the introductory course, the university also offers 30 slots for training courses in competitive programming. These courses are aimed at preparation for the Brazilian Computer Olympiad (OBI) and the Programming Marathon of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC).

The focus is on developing algorithms, solving complex problems, and teamwork. Thus, the training represents an advanced stage of professional qualification for students who wish to deepen their knowledge in programming.

In-Person Classes and Digital Organization

The training for the SBC Programming Marathon takes place exclusively in person, at the Less Laboratory, located in the Labotec III building at Uefs. Classes occur on Mondays from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM in an intensive format.

Meanwhile, the course coordination provides the complete schedule and weekly planning on the official Discord server. Thus, the platform centralizes communication, student support, and material distribution.

How to Participate in the Free Courses

Those interested must register by January 31 using the electronic form provided by Uefs. The slots are limited, and the project solidifies as one of the main current opportunities for those seeking free courses, wishing to learn programming in Python, and investing in professional qualification.

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

NASA is offering US$ 750,000 to people from anywhere in the world who solve a problem that could decide survival on Mars: creating food for astronauts without relying on resupply from Earth.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

After 16 years and almost 600 prototypes, a Chinese inventor unveils the world’s smallest and cheapest manned jet, at just 3.80 meters long and costing US$7.2 thousand in materials.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

Car dealerships avoid these used cars like they’re bombs: famous engines, problematic belts, and expensive transmissions can turn a common purchase into a huge loss in the USA.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

More than 160 million gallons of water, equivalent to 240 Olympic swimming pools, need to be pumped to remove a 100,000-ton nuclear aircraft carrier from dry dock; each of these ships undergoes a complete overhaul costing US$2.8 billion.

With installments starting from R$ 999 per month, a 75 hp 1.0 engine, a 7-inch TFT digital panel, and standard stability control, the Citroën C3 is the cheapest hatchback in Brazil in 2026 and still leaves Kwid, Argo, and Mobi behind in onboard technology.
