The federal government has updated the schedule for applying the tests of the National Exam for the Certification of Youth and Adult Skills (Encceja) 2023, in the regular modalities, persons deprived of liberty (PPL) and participants from abroad.
The Encceja is a test that assesses the competences, skills and knowledge of young people and adults who did not finish elementary school or high school at the appropriate age. For those who stopped studying, the exam serves to obtain the certificate of completion of primary education and the certificate of completion of secondary education.
To participate in the Encceja, the student must be at least 15 years old on the date of the exam, for those seeking certification in elementary school. Anyone seeking high school certification must be at least 18 years old on the date of the test. The exam has four objective tests, each with 30 multiple-choice questions, and an essay proposal.
The new schedule had been published in an ordinance by the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep) on January 2, but has been republished to update bugs in the previous document this Tuesday (17).
