AIMA's construction programme fills only 8.8% of vacancies
Out of 500 available spots in the 'Integrar para a Construção' programme, only 44 immigrants are currently enrolled and participating. The initiative offers 600 hours of training (300 technical, 300 internship) in specialties like plumbing and electricity, with a monthly stipend of 537 euros during the technical phase and 269 euros during the internship, plus meal and transport allowances. A second cycle is being planned, though no start date has been set.
Why it mattersIf you are an immigrant seeking work in the construction sector, this programme provides paid vocational training and direct company contact, though the current cohort has significant vacancies and a future start date remains undefined.
