Técnico is one of 22 higher education institutions chosen by José Neves Foundation (FJN) to be a partner of ISA FJN programme. Based on the Income Share Agreement model, this programme will allow students to benefit from a loan to pay their tuition fees. The scholarship is refundable; after the student is employed, a percentage of the salary is paid, but only above a pre-defined minimum income. This return will then be reinvested to help more students access the programme.
It is estimated that, in the next two years, ISA FJN will support 1,500 students. This programme is aimed at people of all ages, professional situation and backgrounds, wishing to improve or update their skills through courses or trainings lasting up to 24 months: master’s students, bootcamps, postgraduate courses and professional training.
