Job training
The public employment services in each community offer free courses, either in person or online. Some award the Certificado de Profesionalidad, an official qualification valid throughout Spain.
Spaces are limited and there is a selection process.
FUNDAE: courses for those who work
FUNDAE has a search engine for subsidized courses, all free of charge, offered by authorized centers. They are primarily aimed at working people.
You can filter by sector, format, and province.
Google online courses
Google offers free online courses, with a certificate issued by Google itself upon passing the test.
The old Google Activate has been shut down. Today, the courses are offered on Skillshop and Grow with Google.
How to protect yourself
Many websites with “SEPE courses” in their name are not government-run. Official addresses end in sepe.es, fundae.es, or the domain of your local government.
No official course requires a credit card or payment for registration.
