TECHNICAL PROFESSIONALIZING EDUCATION
Since 1985, CEAP has been seeking to form and professionally qualify youngsters who are in a situation of high social vulnerability, offering quality technical courses, so that they have access to studies that are inaccessible for a large part of the population and, that way, they can enter the job market.
The Technical Professionalizing Education is based on an educational program in the Administrative, Computer Skills and Computer Network areas to youngsters between the age of 15 and 18, regularly enrolled at the regular school. The three courses offered are recognized by MEC (Ministry of Education in Brazil) and they last four semesters, a total of two years. The classes take place from Monday to Friday, from 02h10 p.m. to 05h50 p.m. As well as the basic program, all the technical courses have reinforcement classes, such as Math, Portuguese, English and Physical Education. After the conclusion of the program, each student receives a diploma, increasing their chances to enter the job market. Nowadays, in up to 3 months, 70% of youngsters newly formed by CEAP enter the market, starting their professional carrier.
