HCOP Axis 2 goal is to increase the proportion of the population with higher education or equivalent degrees, through a training with specific general and scientific components, a technical training component and an on-the-job workplace apprenticeship. This objective is operationalized through the funding of scholarships in Higher Education, Doctorate and Post Doctoral Scholarships, support to Professional Technical Higher Education (TeSP), and through the financing of a credit line for Higher Education Students.
As a result of the 2020 Reprogramming and in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Skills 4 post-Covid intervention - Skills for the future in Higher Education was additionally designed.
