Registration is open for new Olympic training centers.

Starting this Monday (22), applications are open for the selection of new Intensive Training Olympic Centers (POTI) for Mathematics competitions. Those interested will have until 11:59 pm on February 14 to apply. The result of the call should be announced on February 16.

Applications will only be accepted online. The selection notice can be viewed here . To apply, simply fill out the form available on the website http://poti.impa.br/ and provide the name of the city, the location where the classes will be held, and an estimate of the number of students from the region who are expected to attend the lectures, as well as the Lattes curriculum of the participating professors.

With the goal of improving the performance of Brazilian students in competitions such as OBMEP (Brazilian Mathematics Olympiad for Public Schools) and OBM (Brazilian Mathematics Olympiad), the program funds in-person classes at centers that demonstrate adequate demand and infrastructure.

Students

Students interested in attending POTI in the selected cities can register to participate in in-person classes between February 26th and March 18th. Classes are expected to begin between March 25th and 30th.

For students from states or municipalities unable to attend in-person meetings, where there are no physical centers, or those who are not selected to participate in the in-person POTI program, there is the option to reinforce their studies for the OBMEP and OBM exams through the virtual POTI program .
