Fundação Santander Portugal has launched 5,000 new scholarships for those who want to develop digital skills – such as creating landing pages, websites, apps and software using artificial intelligence – without having to learn programming.
Following the success of the first edition in March, for which the first 5,000 places were allocated, the course has been re-developed in collaboration with the NoCode Institute. It is aimed at all people who, despite lacking technical training in these areas, want to acquire knowledge and use it in the future as added value in the job market.
The program is fully online and is implemented intensively over two weeks and in three phases: the first phase focuses on learning visual programming and developing digital skills; the second phase is dedicated to developing a real digital project; and finally, developing a digital transformation plan.
Scholarships are awarded only in Portugal and are aimed at all Portuguese or Portuguese residents over 18 years of age who have a basic knowledge of the English language and computer and Internet skills from a user’s perspective.
From 5,000 candidates who take the course, 100 participants will be selected to receive a scholarship to further their knowledge.
Applications are open to the Santander Open Academy until September 25th.
