Citizens who have not yet completed Elementary or Secondary Education and wish to obtain certification to be able to attend higher or technical education, can now register for the National Examination for the Certification of Youth and Adult Skills (Encceja).
The Encceja is a test to assess skills, abilities and knowledge of young people and adults who did not finish elementary school or high school at the appropriate age. Applications are open until the 2nd of June this year.
To register, which is free, access this link and click on the item “Registration 2023”. The same portal can be used to track the progress of the application process and Encceja results. You’ll need to access your login to know the test location, for example.
Students who signed up for Encceja 2022, did not attend the test site and did not justify their absence or had their justification denied, in order to take the 2023 test, they must pay the amount of R$ 40. In these cases, the slip will be generated in the time of registration for the exam. The payment slip must be paid by June 9th.
The Encceja
Developed by the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep) since 2002, the same body that produces the National High School Exam (Enem) tests, the test will be administered in all Brazilian states and in the Federal District on the 27th of August.
The exam consists of four objective tests containing 30 multiple-choice questions each, totaling 120 questions. In addition, it is necessary to make a handwritten composition of essay-argumentative text of up to 30 lines, similar to the writing of the Enem.
To take the exam and obtain certification in elementary school, the student must be at least 15 years old. For high school, you must be 18 years or older.
Students who need specialized assistance on the day of the test, as well as requests for treatment by social name, must also be made by June 2nd through the Encceja registration website.
As of this year, transvestite, transsexual or transgender participants with social name registered with the Federal Revenue will not need to send documentation that proves the registration. In addition, people with autism spectrum disorders will have a differentiated correction of the writing test and people with visual impairments will be able to opt for a response card that is printed with an enlarged font.
