The significant increase in new technologies and digital products has made Information Technology (IT) one of the markets with the greatest search for qualified professionals. According to data from the Brazilian Association of Information Technology and Communication Companies (Brasscom), only Brazil currently has a deficit of 70,000 professionals in this area, making this a field of activity where there are plenty of job vacancies and high salaries, a lot attractive, are paid to the most prepared professionals.

Recruitment specialists say that a candidate can get a company’s attention in the IT field with just an online course or a short-term specialization. In the search to fill vacant vacancies, contractors are accepting new profiles and preferring a multidisciplinary training.

For those interested in the area and looking for a qualification or even a first step to enter the market, the Cursa Application offers dozens of free IT courses. There are several areas available for users to learn from basic computing to programming, web and application development, games and databases, passing through IT tools, networks and infrastructure and information security.

All courses are free and at the end of each module the student receives a personalized certification, with the total hours of study and name. Unlike other websites and applications on the market, at Cursa the certificate is issued completely free of charge. In other words, you don’t need to pay anything to train yourself.
