Training Boosts Opportunities for Young People with Support from the Caldeira Institute
In 2024, Gerdau, the largest steel producer in Brazil, expanded its social role by integrating its platform Data4All with the Geração Caldeira program from the Caldeira Institute.
Thus, the company demonstrates its commitment to the development of young people aged 16 to 24.
Since the announcement in March, more than 18 thousand public school participants have already benefited from the project.
It establishes itself as a reference in training for the new economy.
Partnership Expands Access to Technological Education
To ensure solid results, the partnership combines Gerdau’s century-old expertise, which spans 124 years, with the innovative ecosystem of the Caldeira Institute.
The institute was founded to connect talents with the market.
Thus, Data4All, created in collaboration with the edtech Ada, began to offer training tracks in generative artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and data science.
Access to quality content prepares young people to occupy strategic positions in digital transformation.
Content Includes Training Tracks and Practical Classes
Additionally, Geração Caldeira ensures a robust supplementary track made up of over 200 classes.
The schedule covers topics such as programming, technology, data science, and the development of soft skills.
This way, participants can develop competencies that go beyond technical knowledge.
They strengthen essential behavioral skills.
It’s worth noting that, by May 2024, Data4All had already reached more than 10,000 students, 2,000 completed courses, and 422 exams taken in Brazil, Peru, and Mexico.
-
New classes for technical courses at Senai will start in May with in-person and distance learning vacancies in Electromechanics, Automation, and Occupational Safety for those looking to quickly enter the job market in Paraná.
-
Senar offers more than 450 vacancies in free technical courses in the areas of Agriculture, Forestry, Animal Science, Agribusiness, and Occupational Safety in Agriculture; the opportunities are available in both in-person and hybrid formats through Senar MS.
-
Totally online and free: Federal Institute offers a free course on Active Learning Methodologies with a certificate issued by IFRO.
-
Senai opens 15,000 spots in free technology courses with a scholarship of R$700 and paves the way directly to the job market across Brazil.
Scholarship and Job Market Insertion
While advancing in their training, students receive financial support with a scholarship during the in-person phase and access to renowned specialists.
This structure allows talents from public schools to connect with real job opportunities.
The company strengthens its commitment to boosting careers through technology.
It reaffirms its social responsibility in the communities where it operates.
Training Impacts Employees and Communities
Another highlight is that Data4All also serves as a foundation for the G.Data program, which is responsible for training Gerdau employees in data analysis.
In 2023, 60 new data scientists were trained to solve internal challenges.
They apply data science to real solutions.
In this way, the union of education, technology, and opportunities reinforces Gerdau’s positioning as a company that, in addition to producing steel, forges the future of innovation in Brazil.
