The Federal Institute of Pernambuco (IFPE), in partnership with Petrobras, launched a public call to fill 94 remaining vacancies in free professional qualification courses at the Caruaru campus.

The initiative, valid from July 25 to August 15, 2025, aims to promote autonomy and income for low-income individuals in the region, offering a monthly financial aid that can reach R$ 858.00.

The program is especially aimed at groups in situations of social vulnerability, reinforcing the commitment to local development.

Free Technical Courses Focused on Control and Industrial Processes

The 94 available vacancies at the Federal Institute cover in-person courses that are in high demand in the job market, linked to the technological axis of control and industrial processes.

Opportunities are offered in:

  • Pipe Assistant (morning, afternoon, and evening) — 41 vacancies
  • Electrical Assistant (morning) — 11 vacancies
  • Instrumentation Assistant (evening) — 6 vacancies
  • Scaffolding Assembler (morning and evening) — 36 vacancies

These courses are structured to prepare students to work in strategic sectors, aligning technical training with the reality of the regional market.

Financial Aid and Special Support for Single Mothers

The Petrobras Autonomy and Income program guarantees a monthly aid of R$ 660.00 for students, with special attention to single mothers.

Mothers with children under 12 years old can receive an increased amount of R$ 858.00 per month.

To maintain the benefit, a minimum attendance of 75% in classes is required, ensuring commitment to learning and quality training.

Who Can Register and How to Participate

Individuals aged 18 and over, who have completed at least Elementary School I and reside in municipalities within Petrobras’s coverage area in Pernambuco, such as Caruaru, Ipojuca, and Cabo de Santo Agostinho, can apply.

The per capita family income must be up to half a minimum wage.

Applications are free and must be made exclusively through the website of the Ennio de Jesus Pinheiro Amaral Foundation for Support to IF SUL-RIO-GRANDENSE (FAIFSUL).

For those experiencing difficulties, IFPE Caruaru Campus provides in-person support points.

Transparent Selection Process and Disclosure of Results

The list of selected candidates and enrollment instructions will be disclosed on August 21, 2025.

This way, the program ensures transparency and equal opportunities for all candidates.

Opportunity for Professional Qualification and Financial Independence

The program from the Federal Institute in partnership with Petrobras represents an excellent opportunity for those who wish to qualify for free and secure financial support during their studies.

Moreover, the technical training offered prepares students to meet real market demands, increasing their chances of entering the industrial sector.

Don’t miss the deadline: check the requirements, gather your documents, and register online to secure a spot in the offered courses.

About the Federal Institute Campus Caruaru

The Caruaru campus is part of the second stage of the expansion process of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Pernambuco (IFPE), resulting from the policy of interiorization of the Federal Network of Professional and Technological Education.

The unit was officially inaugurated on August 27, 2010, with the presence of then President of the Republic, Luís Inácio Lula da Silva.

Its creation responded to the economic vocation of Caruaru and neighboring cities, strongly directed towards the commerce, services, and industry sectors.

The choice of the first courses — Technical in Civil Engineering, Technical in Occupational Safety, and Technical in Mechatronics — was made through public consultation with the local population, ensuring alignment with the region’s development demands.

Initially, the Campus offered only the Subsequent modality, aimed at those who had already completed High School and sought technical training lasting two years.

Starting in 2012, IFPE Caruaru expanded its activities, also offering technical courses in the Integrated modality, which allows students to take both High School and technical training simultaneously, completing both in four years.

In the same year, the first higher course in Mechanical Engineering offered in the interior of Pernambuco was implemented, lasting five years.

In addition to technical and graduation training, the Caruaru Campus of the Federal Institute also offers two lato sensu postgraduate courses: Interdisciplinarity in Education and Human Sciences and Occupational Safety Engineering.

Esqueceram de segmentar o anúncio somente para Pernambuco. E outra a maioria desses cursos, só a misericórdia hein. Curso de montador de andaimes? Fala sério. Sangue e fogo. Só no Brasil.
