Complete guide

This is our full reference on the free online courses offered through Brazil's public programs — the Escola Virtual do Governo (EV.G) and the training connected to your gov.br account. Below you will find how the system works, what to study, how the certificate is issued, and a detailed FAQ. Use the guides to go deeper into each step.

Why free public courses are worth your time

Continuing education is expensive, and that reality shuts a lot of people out. Public online training exists precisely to remove that barrier. Through the Escola Virtual do Governo (EV.G) and the free courses tied to the gov.br account, anyone with an internet connection can build genuinely useful skills without paying anything — and receive a certificate that carries weight in the job market.

These certificates are not just decorative. In many public selection processes, complementary training counts toward your final score, and hours from recognized public courses are frequently accepted. In the private sector, a well-chosen certificate shows initiative and demonstrates concrete knowledge in an area — from spreadsheets and public procurement to data protection and customer service.

Because the platform is self-paced, it fits around real life. You are never locked into a fixed class schedule. You can study in short bursts on your commute, dedicate a weekend to finishing a longer course, or spread a 40-hour program across a month. Progress is saved automatically, so stopping and resuming is never a problem.

One honest note before you dive in: this website is independent and is not the official site of EV.G, gov.br, or any government body. We explain how these public programs work and point you in the right direction, but enrollment and certificates always happen on the official platforms themselves — and they are always free.

FAQ
Are these courses really free?
Yes. The courses offered through EV.G and the free public training tied to gov.br are free from enrollment to certificate. If a page asks you to pay a fee or provide a card to "unlock" a public certificate, treat it as a warning sign.
Do I need to be a public servant to enroll?
No. EV.G was originally built for public servants, but the large majority of its catalog is open to any citizen. You simply create a free account and choose a course.
Is the certificate valid?
The certificate comes with a unique validation code that can be checked online. It can be added to a résumé and, in many public selection processes, counts as complementary training. Whether it counts for a specific selection always depends on that process's own rules.
How long does a course take?
It varies. Some courses take only a couple of hours, while others are 40 hours or more. Because they are self-paced, you decide how quickly to move through the material.
Can I study only on my phone?
Yes. A smartphone with an internet connection is enough to complete a full course, take the final assessment and download your certificate. See our mobile guide for tips.
Is this an official government website?
No. Iévera is an independent site. We explain how these public programs work and guide you toward them, but enrollment and certificates are always handled on the official platforms, free of charge.
