Free Postgraduate Course in Portuguese Language for Deaf Students Has 40 Openings Announced by MEC

The National Institute of Deaf Education (INES</a), in partnership with the Ministry of Education (MEC), has just announced the opening of 40 spots for the lato sensu postgraduate course in Portuguese Language: Reading and Writing in Education for the Deaf, scheduled to start in February 2025. Half of the spots are allocated for Deaf candidates and the other half for hearing candidates, respecting parity in the selection process. The course is free and offers an excellent opportunity for teachers and professionals in the fields of Languages, Pedagogy, Speech Therapy, and related areas who wish to specialize in bilingual education for the deaf.

With 360 class hours distributed over 12 months, classes will be held twice a week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 6 PM to 10 PM, at the INES headquarters in Rio de Janeiro. The course aims to provide ongoing training, complementing the knowledge of professionals who already work or wish to work in teaching Portuguese to the deaf, a field that is increasingly growing in Brazil. For those seeking quality free courses, this is a unique opportunity.

How Does the MEC Selection Process Work?

The selection process will occur in two stages, with a first phase of submitting a text or video between September 10, 2024, and October 10, 2024. In this stage, candidates must write a text of three to four pages or submit a video in sign language lasting between 10 and 15 minutes, addressing issues related to teaching reading and writing to the deaf. This is a qualifying and eliminatory stage, where candidates who score 7.0 or higher will be classified for the second phase.
