Extensive Internship Program Opens Applications
This ambitious program represents a crucial step in bridging the gap between academic learning and real-world professional experience. It reflects a strategic effort by both governmental and private entities to invest in the future workforce of São Paulo.
Participating students will gain hands-on experience in diverse environments, contributing to their overall professional growth and enhancing their employability. The initiative focuses on practical application of knowledge, allowing interns to develop essential skills beyond the classroom setting.
Diverse Educational and Professional Pathways
Opportunities within the program span a wide array of academic disciplines for higher education students, ensuring a match for various career aspirations. Eligible fields include administration, communication, law, civil engineering, financial management, public management, nutrition, and logistics, among many other specialized areas of study. High school students become eligible for these positions starting from their first year of study, providing an early introduction to professional environments. These roles are primarily located within Seduc’s central offices and various Regional Education Directorates, offering exposure to the workings of state-level educational administration.

High school interns will primarily undertake their activities within the central offices and the regional directorates of Seduc-SP. They will adhere to a 20-hour weekly work schedule, not exceeding four hours daily, and receive a monthly stipend of R$ 475.05. This financial support aims to assist students with their expenses while gaining invaluable work experience in a governmental setting.
For students enrolled in higher education programs, the internship structure provides a more intensive experience, with a workload of 30 hours per week, capped at six hours daily. These interns are compensated with a monthly stipend of R$ 937.59, reflecting the increased commitment and the advanced nature of their studies.
