The measure is part of the Employment + Digital 2025 Program, based on a benefit funded by the PRR, active until September 2025 - with training to be completed by this date.
Since 2023, workers from various sectors can apply to receive financial support, up to 750 euros, to develop digital skills. According to Notícias ao Minuto, registration must be done on the IEFP portal, where the candidate fills out a form and submits the required documents. (Source: Notícias ao Minuto) (IEFP portal)
This program includes self-employed and employed workers, as well as entrepreneurs, with priority for those involved in digitalization processes, at risk of unemployment or with low digital literacy.
The areas of training include productivity tools, social networks, and digital commerce, with courses that can be online, in person, or mixed and require certification from the General Directorate of Employment and Labor Relations (DGERT).
IEFP evaluates criteria such as the candidate's justification for the need for training, regulatory compliance, quality of the training institution, and training costs. The value is reimbursed after the course is completed, covering registration, attendance, and certification fees.
An initiative of the Portuguese Government, managed by IEFP, the Cheque-Formação + Digital aims to improve digital skills in the job market.
