SENAI Presidente Prudente

What SENAI Presidente Prudente does

SENAI Presidente Prudente ("Escola SENAI Santo Paschoal Crepaldi") is a vocational and technical education institution operating as a local unit of SENAI-SP (Serviço Nacional de Aprendizagem Industrial de São Paulo), part of Brazil's federally chartered Sistema S industrial training system. The unit is located at Rua Roberto Mange, 151 in Presidente Prudente, São Paulo state, and serves individual students, job seekers, and industrial enterprises across the western São Paulo region. It delivers a five-tier course portfolio spanning Cursos Livres (free short courses), Cursos Técnicos (technical programs), Aprendiz SENAI (industrial apprenticeship combining classroom and on-the-job training), Graduação (undergraduate degrees), and Pós-graduação (graduate specialization), across 14 industrial sectors including Administration, Food and Beverage, Automotive, Civil Construction, Fashion Design, Graphic Design, Mechanical Manufacturing, Logistics, Mechatronics, Environment and Safety, Metallurgy, Chemistry, Refrigeration, and Information Technology. The institution also offers Educação Online (online learning) for remote students.

The business model is non-commercial and network-funded. Rather than relying on tuition revenue, SENAI-SP units operate on mandatory payroll contributions paid by industrial companies into the Sistema S, channeled through the FIESP (Federação das Indústrias do Estado de São Paulo) and CNI (Confederação Nacional da Indústria) federation structure. This statutory funding allows the unit to offer free community courses alongside fee-based technical and graduate programs, while running apprenticeship pipelines that place students directly into industrial employers. The GTM motion is primarily direct, on-site enrollment at the Presidente Prudente campus, supplemented by enterprise partnerships for customized workforce training and an online channel for distance learners. Governance ties to FIESP/CNI, research collaboration with EMBRAPII, and the SENAI-SP UpLab innovation accelerator sit at the network level rather than the unit level. The unit is small (11–50 employees) and serves a regional rather than national catchment.
