Applications Open: Find Out How To Participate
Those interested in joining the program can now apply. Applications are open from February 1 to 27, 2025, and the participation fee is R$ 150.00.
However, candidates registered in the Unique Registry for Social Programs of the Federal Government (CadÚnico), bone marrow donors, and regular blood donors can request an exemption from the fee.
Among the 123 positions offered, 43 are designated for graduates in Architecture and Urbanism and 80 for civil engineers.
To participate, candidates must have completed their graduation no more than three years ago. This restriction aims to ensure that the program caters to early-career professionals, promoting their integration into the job market and enhancing their academic and professional development.
Benefits And Structure Of The Program
The selected individuals will receive a monthly scholarship of R$ 3,040.00 throughout the two-year duration of the program.
During this period, residents will work directly in secretariats and agencies of the Government of Paraná, assisting in the execution of infrastructure and urban development projects.
In addition to practical experience, participants will also be enrolled in a lato sensu postgraduate course, with a workload of 500 hours, offered by the State University of Ponta Grossa (UEPG).
This differentiator allows recent graduates to expand their academic knowledge while applying the learning acquired in practice.
Strategic Partnership And Impact On Paraná’s Infrastructure
The Restec is coordinated by the Secretariat of Science, Technology and Higher Education (Seti) in partnership with UEPG.
Inspired by medical residencies, the program aims to train specialists in the management and execution of public projects, ensuring a direct return to society through quality works.
Since its inception in 2013, Restec has trained 264 professionals, contributing to the modernization of state infrastructure.
The program has received great support from government agencies, demonstrating its relevance to public administration.
Crisis In Skilled Labor: A Challenge In Brazil
The lack of qualified professionals in the construction sector has been a growing challenge in Brazil.
According to a survey by the Brazilian Institute of Economy of the Getulio Vargas Foundation (FGV IBRE), almost 60% of companies in the sector report difficulties in hiring specialized labor.
This shortage directly impacts the execution of public and private works, resulting in delays, increased costs, and a decrease in the quality of services.
Programs like Restec become essential to fill this gap, training new professionals ready to meet the sector’s demands.
An Important Step For The Careers Of Engineers And Architects
In addition to offering a solid start to a career, Restec allows participants to develop technical and managerial skills, enhance their competencies in urban planning and infrastructure, and expand their professional networking.
For recent graduates, participating in the program can represent a significant competitive edge in the job market, increasing their chances of hiring in private sector companies or even in future opportunities in the public sector.
How To Apply?
Those interested should visit the official program website and follow the instructions in the announcement.
It is essential that candidates pay attention to deadlines and requirements to ensure participation. Applications can be made until February 27, 2025.
Esse é o grande problema desse país. O governo promove um projeto que dá ao profissional formado que tem na legislação um teto mínimo de 9x o valor do salário mínimo, e dá esse valor “piada” que só desvaloriza o profissional. Que droga.
