Brazilian education program registrations

Entities: Instituto Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (IFRS) · Prefeitura de Florianópolis · Sesc Centro · Marcelo Baiocchi Carneiro · Florianópolis (Brazil)

Overview

In early July 2026 Brazilian municipalities opened time‑limited enrolment windows for several student‑benefit schemes. Goiás began accepting online applications for the Passe Livre Estudantil (PLE) – up to 48 free monthly trips for schoolchildren – through 30 September, while João Pessoa required a compulsory online recadastro for the Programa Apoio Universitário, closing on 31 July.

Later in the month the University of the Elderly (Univida) at Unoesc Joaçaba announced second‑semester enrollment for its 2026 senior‑education courses, which start 12 August and run weekly on Wednesdays for 18 months, with registration via WhatsApp or the university website until 31 July. The Universidade Estadual do Norte Fluminense Darcy Ribeiro (UENF) opened abstract submissions for the LongeViver 2026 and CONASEH longevity congresses, deadline 27 July; the hybrid events (29‑31 July) will be free and open with a musical opening by a senior‑age student band.

On 28 July Sesc Centro in Goiânia launched registrations for its Núcleo Livre das Artes, offering music, dance, theatre and circus classes for children, youth, adults and seniors from 3 August through 5 December. Simultaneously, the Campus Sertão of the Federal Institute of Rio Grande do Sul accepted study‑credit recognition requests (28 July‑4 August), with results to be posted on 12 August.

The enrollment drive continued with municipal programmes in the second half of July. São Gonçalo began pre‑registrations for the Education of Youth and Adults (EJA) programme for the second semester, requiring documentation such as birth or marriage certificates, identity cards and proof of residence; eligible participants receive free schooling, meals and transport passes where applicable. In Florianópolis, a new online portal opened year‑round EJA enrollment for anyone aged 15 or older across 30 municipal locations, recording 835 enrolments to date (169 in literacy, 666 in subsequent courses) and providing the same free‑meal and transport‑pass benefits.
