At the same time, we are looking for committed individuals to complete the program, with a service-oriented attitude, attention to the needs of others, and initiative to solve problems that may arise at any time.

DOES THIS PROCESS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH TRACK MARSHAL POSITIONS?

No. The call for track marshals is a separate process run independently by FEMADAC. We invite you to check their official website for more information.

Once the official application registration is closed, the organizing committee will schedule a date for your interview (virtual or in-person); we will then send you a response via email.
