Neoenergia launches electricians school for women in Pernambuco
The Electricians School for Women is intended to encourage female insertion to work in a predominantly male-held profession. “Encouraging the presence of women in an activity still seen as male not only broadens the opportunity in the job market, but also supports the constant pursuit of gender equality," said Celpe president Saulo Cabral. “By expanding female participation, we break up social standards. Practical experience tells us that to encourage interest in the role of electricians, women first need to feel represented", he concluded.
SELECTION PROCESS
The selection process has written test (Portuguese, math and writing), psychological assessment, practical test, and interview for profile assessment. The students will be divided into four classes, with 25 participants each. The course has theoretical and practical subjects, lasting up to seven months and with a workload of 596 hours. The classes will be held by the Serviço Nacional de Aprendizagem Industrial (Senai-PE) in the Areias - Recife, Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Caruaru and Garanhuns units. The course begins in the first half of 2020. Registration is free, with limited spots and can be made between December 18 and 22, exclusively through the sitewww.celpe.com.br.
The training has the support of the Government of Pernambuco. The Electricians School for Women is the first partnership signed with a private institution by the PE with Women Program, coordinated by the Vice Governorate and developed by the State Secretariat of Women.
MIXED CLASSES
Celpe's Electricians School already works for a mixed public in seven Pernambuco municipalities (Recife, Jaboatão, Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Caruaru, Garanhuns, Serra Talhada and Petrolina). Started in 2018, the School trained more than 300 electricians and of this total, Celpe hired 215. A utilization of approximately 70%. For 2020, more than 20 new training classes are planned.
