Bahia education staffing and training

In late July 2026 the Bahia State Department of Education (SEC) held a two‑day training for municipal education technical teams, covering learning inclusion, student retention and state‑municipality cooperation, with a workshop on technical‑financial support for rural schools. A few days later SEC issued a public call for 180 teachers on temporary 36‑month contracts—144 for basic education and 36 for professional education—detailing application requirements and posting the results in the official diary. The notice, published in the state gazette on 25 July, confirmed that hires will be under the REDA regime, with a 20‑hour weekly workload and salaries set by class and level. Applicants must submit scanned documents between 27 July and 7 August and then present originals in person at SEC headquarters in Salvador or at territorial education nuclei. This sequence demonstrates the state’s simultaneous push to build technical capacity and to reinforce staffing across its school system.
