IFMS Opened Free In-Person Slots in Three Cities in MS. In Aquidauana, There Is a Night Course in Building Technology, Lasting About Two Years, with Enrollment Done Directly on Campus, On a First-Come, First-Served Basis.
The Federal Institute of Mato Grosso do Sul confirmed free in-person slots for the Building Technology course in Aquidauana, with classes in the evening. This course is of the Post-Secondary modality, meaning it is aimed at those who have already completed high school and seek a quick and recognized technical qualification.
The Post-Secondary modality of IFMS focuses on practical content and regional employability. In the case of Building Technology, the training is directly related to the construction industry, which requires mastery of technical standards, reading blueprints, project planning, and workplace safety. The structure of the courses offered by IFMS typically has a duration of about two years, which accelerates the graduate’s entry into the job market.
In addition to Aquidauana, IFMS confirmed opportunities in Coxim and Jardim, expanding the reach of public and free professional training policy in the state. This strategy serves both recent high school graduates and adults looking to re-enter technical fields.

How Enrollment and In-Person Registration at Cerel of IFMS Works
For these slots, there is no exam. The guidance is to go in person to the Cerel (Customer Service Center) of the offering campus with the required documentation. Enrollment occurs on a first-come, first-served basis as long as there are available slots. Generally, the requested documents include official photo ID, proof of education, and, when indicated in the announcement, a 3×4 photo and other supporting documents. It is essential to check the complete list of documents and any forms in the latest announcement.
Address, phone number, and service hours of Cerel vary by campus, so checking the Central Selection website and the official IFMS channels is essential before leaving home. In announcements regarding remaining slots, IFMS usually emphasizes that enrollment is conditional on the complete presentation of documentation during in-person service.
Finally, some processes at IFMS have online registration systems in other contexts. However, for the slots open to the community mentioned here, the current rule is in-person registration at the Cerel of the campus.
What the Night Building Technology Course Offers in Aquidauana
The Building Technology course prepares students to engage in activities related to projects, budgeting, planning, and execution of construction work, including reading blueprints, applying standards, and basic safety knowledge. The curriculum prioritizes technical content of the construction industry and may include topics on construction materials, technical drawings, and site practices, as well as legislation basics.
Being offered at night, the course benefits those who work during the day and seek free qualification to advance in their role or start a technical career. The average duration of two years allows for a balance between in-depth technical knowledge and quick training, with internship opportunities according to the educational project.
Job availability tends to be strong in the region, considering the ongoing demand for professionals who can interpret projects, budget materials, and comply with technical standards in public and private works. For the student, it represents a concrete entry point into the sector.
Other Opportunities in the State: Coxim and Jardim Also Have Slots
In Coxim, IFMS opened slots for Maintenance and Support in Information Technology in the evening, with an average duration of two years. Meanwhile, in Jardim, there is Building Technology in the evening and Information Technology for the Internet with evening classes lasting three years. In all cases, the guidance is the same: in-person registration on a first-come, first-served basis at the Cerel of the campus.
These opportunities allow candidates to assess the best fit between area of interest, duration, and shift, considering commuting and work routines. The recommendation is to check the availability of slots in real time, as enrollment depends on local demand. (Sources: Central Selection of IFMS; regional press)
For specific questions regarding prerequisites and documents, reading the announcement and direct contact with the campus are the safest paths.
Documents, Deadlines, and Where to Ask Questions
The official route to follow announcements, schedules, and required documents is the Central Selection of IFMS. There, candidates can verify if the desired slot is still open and confirm addresses and service hours of Cerel at each campus. In recent notices, IFMS reinforces that enrollment depends on the complete submission of documentation during in-person service.
For general inquiries about selection processes, the institute provides the email processoseletivo@ifms.edu.br. In case of questions about Pé de Meia, the recommendation is to consult the MEC channels and the Student Journey app, which displays the eligibility status and expected installments.
Before going to the campus, bring originals and copies of the most common documents and a checklist aligned with the announcement. Since slots are on a first-come, first-served basis, arriving early with the correct documentation increases the chances of securing enrollment.
Do you think that first-come, first-served enrollment is the fairest way to distribute slots, or should IFMS adopt online selection to broaden access? Share your opinion in the comments.
