The Bento de Jesus Caraça Professional School  (EPBJC) is a non-profit institution created in 1989 through a program-contract signed between CGTP-IN and the Ministry of Education. It is committed to providing high-quality vocational education and has the mission of training competent technicians and conscious, active citizens who are engaged in building a more just, democratic, and humanistic society.

It has existed for over 35 years and offers quality education based on practical skills, personal development, and social competence. Its main objective, expressed in its educational project, is to train “Active Citizens and Competent Technicians,” stimulating critical thinking through practical and engaging teaching delivered by qualified professionals who know and love what they do.

The school is characterized as an inclusive institution, where each student’s learning pace and individual characteristics are respected. It also values the relationship between teachers, students, families, and curricular content, involving and empowering everyone in the learning process.

EPBJC trains young people through practical, high-quality education. Here, each student discovers their own path and develops the skills necessary for the future — whether entering the job market or continuing their studies.
