The objective is to prepare candidates for the Selection Process of the Federal University of Pará (UFPA) and the University of the State of Pará (Uepa), aimed at candidates who have already completed high school and quilombola or indigenous students.

Enhancement - The State Secretary of Education, Ricardo Sefer, was present at the 'aulão' and discussed the importance of the action for strengthening public education, benefiting the entire school community.
“As Secretary of Education, I have sought to be close to the school community and understand the daily life of each region, each community, so that we can, together, enhance the quality of education in our State's public network. This preparatory 'aulão' represents the public authority's commitment to ensuring equal opportunities and valuing quilombola identity and culture,” emphasized the head of Seduc.
