Top 4 of #QuartaDoBem
The second edition of the largest technology competition between schools in the country, sponsored by iFood, had a 605% increase in registrations: 600 thousand students from 1,900 schools. In 2022, 85 thousand students participated in the Tech Marathon.
This year, 14,546 delivery drivers registered on the iFood app signed up to take the Encceja, the test that gives a high school completion certificate. It's almost the triple the number of registrations in 2022 through the My Secondary School Diploma program, from iFood (and 1.3% of the total number of subscribers across the country in 2023).
