Geraldo Alckmin: Instead of taking competitive exams in different cities, with the national teacher exam you take a single nationwide assessment and your score will help you compete for vacancies in municipalities and state governments that have adopted the exam.
Geraldo Alckmin: This year, more than 2,000 education networks in municipal and state governments have adopted the system.
With participation from 96% of the state capitals and 85% of the states.
Geraldo Alckmin: That means more opportunities, lower cost, and the score is valid for three years.
Geraldo Alckmin: If you are finishing a teaching degree (licenciatura) or have already graduated and want to teach in the public school system, taking the national teacher exam is an excellent strategy.
