Registration is open for the Introduction to Brazilian Portuguese – A1 [Level 1] course, to take place between 15 February and 25 February. This course is offered to students, researchers, foreign professors and external community members who need an introduction to the Portuguese language.

The aim is to enable participants to master the structures, expressions and sentences of everyday use, allowing them to communicate in a simple way, introduce themselves and others, ask questions and give answers about personal aspects and their surroundings. The course will also present elements of the Brazilian culture through relevant texts and famous MPB (Brazilian Popular Music) songs.

This 20-hour, self-instructional course will be held online through the virtual teaching and learning environment Moodle. To progress in the course, students need to view all contents and complete the activities proposed at the end of each module. For approval in the course, they must obtain a final grade equal to or higher than six (6.0).

At the end of the course, participants who complete all required activities and obtain the minimum grade required will receive an electronic certificate issued by UFSC and valid throughout the country.
