Who Can Apply for Online and In-Person Technical Courses at the Federal Institute

In the integrated technical high school, the student takes high school along with technical training. To apply, one must have completed elementary school. This modality requires a objective test, which will be administered on October 19.

The concurrent technical course is aimed at students who are already in the 2nd or 3rd year of high school at another institution and wish to take the technical course at Ifes simultaneously. In this case, selection will be based on academic history analysis.

The subsequent technical course is for those who have already completed high school and only desire technical training. Similar to the concurrent course, selection is also based on academic history analysis.

Finally, Proeja offers vacancies for people over 18 who have not completed high school, allowing them to finish this stage along with the technical course. Selection will be made by lottery. Check Proeja vacancies here.

Here is the list of technical courses offered online and in-person:

Mechanics

For the economist José Kobori, the USA gained a trump card to “blackmail” Brazil and undermine China’s influence by classifying the PCC and Comando Vermelho as terrorists, increasing the power to pressure companies, banks, and even Pix.
