In the case of courses for public agents, the selection will prioritize those working in federal, state, or municipal agencies. Similarly, spots that are not filled by these professionals may be occupied by other candidates who meet the course requirements. For some specializations, such as Management of Schools in the Countryside, candidates linked to grassroots popular movements will also have priority.
