These vacancies represent a great opportunity for those looking to start a degree, especially for those who prefer distance learning. Thus, there is a percentage of vacancies specially reserved for teachers in the public education system who do not yet have higher education or who do not have a diploma in the area in which they work.
Structure of the selection process and benefits of distance learning
The UFJF selection process was structured to include two groups of candidates. The first group is open to the general public, who compete based on their average grades in Portuguese and Math from high school, and must present their academic transcripts. This method represents 80% of the total vacancies. The second group, equivalent to the remaining 20%, is aimed at teachers working in the public school system who do not yet have higher education or who need specific training to work in their teaching area. These teachers must prove their connection to the school system and be registered on the Freire Platform.

How the selection process works
To apply for the selection process, candidates must choose the support center where they will carry out in-person activities and choose one of the admission methods. The process is quite inclusive, and candidates from the group designated for public school teachers have priority in the event of a tie based on length of service. If the tie persists, the tiebreaker criterion will be age.
