“Senac is a professional education institution focused on hands-on experience, preparing people for the job market,” explains Maurício Pedro. Senac’s training can be used in both companies and the service sector, and also allows individuals to quickly become entrepreneurs. “We know that there are not enough CLT jobs for everyone, but there is work for many. Our courses enable autonomous employability, allowing individuals to start their own business and quickly enter the job market,” says the operations manager of Senac.
An assessment from the National Department of the institution shows that the employability rate is 70% among students and alumni one year after graduation. Tourism, for example, is an area with free courses that is expanding in the country, offering numerous career possibilities. Data from IBGE indicates that tourist activity in Brazil grew 7.5% from January to November last year compared to the same period in 2022.
Enrollment and Requirements
The Senac Gratitude Program is aimed at students with a monthly family income of up to two federal minimum wages per person. The offer of vacancies is constant, and enrollment must be done 20 days before the start of the course. Interested parties should stay alert, as enrollments occur on a first-come, first-served basis in a virtual queue. The available free technical courses can be checked on the institution’s website.
Senac Gratitude
The Senac Gratitude Program will complete 15 years in 2024, benefiting more than 1.5 million people, expanding access to quality professional education and opening up a world of alternatives in the job market. “The professional education course allows for a life change,” says Maurício Pedro. “Those who start taking a course that offers chances to enter the job market seek to continue their studies. They start to have an income, contributing to family status in most cases. This is very satisfying. Our technical training guarantees dignity and improves the individual’s position in society.”
