Registrations Open for Two Free and 100% Online Courses in Brazilian Sign Language Offered by the Federal Institute. Anyone from Brazil Can Enroll, and Upon Completion, You Receive a Certificate. Learn How to Participate.

The Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Rio Grande do Sul (IFRS) launched, in October 2025, registrations for two free and 100% online courses in Brazilian Sign Language, aimed at people across Brazil who wish to learn Brazilian Sign Language (libras). The classes are: “Libras for Teachers – Class 2025B” and “Libras: Basic Understanding – Class 2025B.”

The objective is to enhance inclusion and communication with the deaf community, and approved participants will receive a free certificate at the end of the course.

Who Can Participate and How Do the Free Courses at the Federal Institute Work?

Anyone interested in the topic can enroll, as long as they have a good understanding of reading in Portuguese, access to a computer with video and audio, and the ability to use virtual learning tools.

Registrations will be open until December 31, 2025 for these classes.

The course “Libras for Teachers” has a workload of 40 hours, while “Libras: Basic Understanding” offers 90 hours.

The main content includes: manual alphabet, numbers, greetings, pronouns, objects, environments, verbs, and classifiers—all in the context of libras.

Where and When Do They Take Place

The free courses are completely distance, that is, online, allowing participation from students anywhere in the country.

Completion must occur by January 31, 2026 for these classes.

Why Take a Libras Course at the Federal Institute?

Learning libras at the Federal Institute brings several benefits:

  • Facilitates communication with deaf people, promoting inclusion.
  • Curricular enrichment: knowledge of libras is a differential in the job market and in educational contexts.
  • Free access with a certificate makes the opportunity more accessible to everyone.
    Through these courses, IFRS contributes to enhancing the visibility of sign language as a vector of equity and access.

Content of the Free Libras Courses

Libras for Teachers – Class 2025B

Aimed primarily at teachers and undergraduate students, but open to all interested parties. The focus is on “understanding the world of the deaf,” “knowledge for classroom practice,” and “basic introduction for communication in libras teacher-student.”

Libras: Basic Understanding – Class 2025B

Broader content, with 90 hours, including: introduction to libras, fingerspelling (manual alphabet) and numbers, greetings, calendar, pronouns, houses and objects, colors, food, clothing, educational environments and places, verbs, derivation, and classifiers.

Tips to Make the Most of the Free Courses

  • Organization: Establish a weekly schedule to study, even though it is distance learning.
  • Constant practice: Use libras in daily life, even with family or friends, to reinforce the signs.
  • Support materials: Check if there are videos, readings, and exercises — platforms usually include evaluative activities.
  • Clear goals: Since the course has academic value (certificate), plan to complete it by the deadline (01/31/2026).
  • Real inclusion: Use the learning to promote accessibility and communication with deaf people — it’s not just about a “course,” but about social impact.

For those who want to learn the sign language libras, the free courses offered by the Federal Institute represent an excellent entry point: free, 100% online, with certification. Registrations are open until the end of 2025.

Whether for teachers or anyone interested, there are options with different workloads and depths. Additionally, the time investment yields direct benefits for inclusion and communication.
