A Complete and Accessible Training

According to public notice nº 001/2024, amended on December 9, 2024, the course of Specialization in Teaching Sociology in High School is aimed at graduate teachers working in public schools.

Completely distance and at no cost, the specialization offers 90 spots and aims to train teachers with modern pedagogical practices aligned with the demands of high school education.

With a duration of 18 months and 360 hours of classes, the course is structured to provide an enriching academic experience.

As detailed by CAPES, the initiative is part of the UAB/CAPES System, a program aimed at strengthening the qualification of Brazilian teachers.

What Will You Learn?

The specialization combines theory and practice to promote the improvement of Sociology teaching.

The focus is on innovative methodologies that transform the classroom into a dynamic and stimulating space.

Among the highlights of the training is the Final Project (TCC), which encourages teachers to apply their learning in real projects.

These projects help develop solutions that can be implemented directly in the school environment, benefiting both educators and students.

How Are the Spots Distributed?

According to the public notice, the 90 spots are divided into specific categories:

General Competition (GC): 60 spots available for any candidate who meets the general criteria.
Black, Brown, Indigenous, or Quilombola Individuals (PPIQ): 30 reserved spots, in compliance with affirmative action policies.

If the reserved spots are not filled, they will be redirected to the general competition. This strategy ensures that all opportunities are utilized.

Selection Process

The selection process consists of four stages, with clear and objective criteria:

Verification of Applications: during this stage, the documentation submitted by candidates will be reviewed.
Scoring of Documents: work experience and undergraduate diplomas will be evaluated.
Self-Identification: applicable exclusively to candidates registered for PPIQ spots.
Announcement of the Final Result: the list of approved candidates will be published in the SIGAA system and on the SEDIS page.

According to UFRN, all information will be published through official channels, ensuring transparency in the process.

Additionally, candidates will be able to appeal the preliminary results within one working day after the announcement.

Why Choose This Course?

Besides being free and entirely online, the course offers the chance to earn a specialist title without the need for physical relocation.

This format was designed to meet the needs of teachers, who often face challenges in balancing work, studies, and personal life.

According to CAPES, the specialization has a direct impact on the quality of education in public schools.

The knowledge gained by teachers reflects on student performance, promoting a cycle of continuous improvement in basic education.

Enrollment Deadline and Requirements

Interested individuals can apply until January 10, 2025.

To do this, it is necessary to access the SIGAA portal and follow the instructions outlined in the public notice.

It is mandatory to possess a diploma, certificate, or declaration of completion of an undergraduate course to validate the registration.

The public notice also advises that all required documents must be digitized and submitted in the format indicated by the system.

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Ethiopia has banned gasoline and diesel cars, placed over a hundred silent electric buses on the streets of Addis Ababa, and now aims for half a million electric vehicles by 2030, all powered by Africa’s largest dam and a courage that few countries have shown.

Egypt wants to draw 10 million cubic meters of water from the Nile per day into the desert, irrigate a new agricultural frontier, and build a city where there is currently only sand.

Norway is drilling 27 kilometers of rock 392 meters below the bottom of a fjord to build the world’s largest and deepest underwater road tunnel — when completed, a 21-hour journey will be reduced to 10.

An astronaut spent 340 days in space while his twin brother stayed on Earth, and NASA found a “rejuvenating” effect, genes, microbiome, cognition, and immune system that revealed the biological cost of living outside the planet.

Chinese engineers begin filling a 217-meter dam at an altitude of 3,000 meters and prepare a 2,240 MW hydroelectric power plant to integrate hydropower, solar, and wind energy in the upper Jinsha.

After 14 years of construction and a diplomatic crisis that nearly led to a military confrontation over control of the Nile, Ethiopia inaugurated the largest hydroelectric power plant in Africa — the dam is 170 meters high, holds 74 billion cubic meters of water, and generates 5,150 megawatts.

Directly from space, a NASA astronaut photographed their former university and sent the image by email.

7,300 years ago, an underwater supervolcano near Japan caused the most violent eruption of the last 10,000 years — now scientists have confirmed that it is recharging with new magma, and the reservoir that fueled the ancient catastrophe remains active.

Brazil broke the historical record for oil and gas production in February 2026 — 5.3 million barrels per day, and a single platform in the Búzios field already produces more than entire countries.

The electricity bill in the Northeast will increase by almost 10% starting this week — five states already have a scheduled date for the adjustment, and the director of ANEEL admits that the increase is double the inflation.

A Chinese company has just delivered its 10,000th humanoid robot — and now wants to place 100,000 in factories worldwide by the end of the year, while Tesla, Boston Dynamics, and the rest of the West have yet to move beyond prototypes.
