If that's the case, then you need to learn about SENAC and the courses the institution offers. SENAC is sure to have an ideal course to suit what you're looking for.

The first step to taking advantage of the vast list of courses offered by SENAC is to learn a little more about the institution and, from there, choose the best option for your professional needs.

What is SENAC?

This question should be the starting point for anyone who wants to learn more about the institution and take advantage of the courses offered. In that case, you're in the right place to get guidance and make the best decisions.

SENAC, or the National System of Commercial Apprenticeship, is an educational institution that serves the public interest but is part of the private sector. SENAC offers dozens of courses in different areas.

Established under the Federal Constitution, SENAC is part of the so-called "System S" and, due to its characteristics, is a non-profit organization. This is very significant, especially regarding tuition fees.

SENAC is one of the most respected and oldest institutions in the country, so students don't need to worry about diploma recognition, as it is one of the most prestigious in all of Brazil.

As mentioned earlier, SENAC is part of the so-called "S System," which also includes:

• National Rural Learning Service (SENAR);
• National Service for Commercial Apprenticeship (SENAC);
• Social Service of Commerce (SESC);
• National Service for Cooperative Learning (SESCOOP);
• National Service for Industrial Training (SENAI);
• Social Service of Industry (SESI);
• Social Service of Transport (SEST);
• National Service for Transport Apprenticeship (SENAT);
• Brazilian Service for Support to Micro and Small Businesses (SEBRAE).

Paid courses and free program

Although it is a non-profit initiative, SENAC is still a private institution. Therefore, courses are offered for a monthly fee, unlike what happens in public institutions.

However, one of SENAC's main advantages is that the institution charges affordable monthly fees and also has a free program for low-income individuals.

The idea behind this stance is to make access to professional training increasingly democratic and accessible. After all, education shouldn't be a privilege reserved only for those who can afford it, right?

SENAC has units throughout Brazil, totaling around 600. Furthermore, many of its courses are also offered entirely online, making them even more accessible.
