Cursos SEPE

What Cursos SEPE does

Cursos SEPE (legal entity Kaleidoscopio, founded 2020, headquartered in Alcalá de Henares, Madrid) is an independent Spanish informational web portal and Android mobile application that aggregates free and subsidized training courses from SEPE (Servicio Público de Empleo Estatal) and other public administrations and independent academies. The platform serves three primary user segments: unemployed Spanish workers seeking free professional training and employment support; employed workers pursuing subsidized upskilling; and the broader Spanish public looking for guidance on employment services, social security, and administrative procedures. The portal is explicitly positioned as an independent intermediary — not affiliated with official SEPE — and earns no fees from course enrollment, instead routing users via links to third-party academies and public institutions.

The platform is built on a web-based content management system, delivered through cursos-sepe.net and an official Android application (package com.cursossepe.cursossepe) distributed via Google Play Store. Core surface includes searchable course catalogs segmented by sector, municipality, and modality (online/presential); practical guides covering SEPE appointment scheduling, labor history reports, unemployment benefits, SMS notifications, and MEC scholarships; and a weekly email newsletter with province-level personalization. Standard integrations consist of Google Analytics for traffic measurement and a WhatsApp contact button; no public API, SDK, or developer-facing integrations are offered. The editorial team is small (writers and programmers, with occasional expert collaborators) and led by a Director of Contents with prior SEPE professional orientation experience.

The business model is freemium and free to end users, with monetization driven entirely by advertising — including a dedicated section for professional collaborations, advertising proposals, and section sponsorships. Distribution is digital-first and product-led: users self-serve through organic search, the website, the mobile app, a weekly newsletter, and social channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Instagram). The platform reports over 100,000 unique monthly users and approximately 500,000 monthly page views. The company is privately financed, has no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed funding rounds.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• InfoJobs: Spain's leading job board owned by Adevinta, with adjacent content on employment, training, and administrative procedures. Comparable audience (Spanish job seekers) but a broader incumbent with deeper monetization and employer-side relationships.
• Indeed España: Global job search engine with a strong Spain presence. Overlaps in target user (job seekers, often unemployed workers) and surfaces some training resources, but its core product is job listings rather than training aggregation.

Others

• SEPE (Servicio Público de Empleo Estatal): Official Spanish public employment service that funds and certifies the training courses Cursos SEPE aggregates. Not a commercial peer, but the authoritative source of the underlying training data and a potential official competitor.
• Fundación Telefónica / Telefónica Educación: Large Spanish provider of subsidized digital and professional training programs that Cursos SEPE lists and links to. Relevant as a major content partner that could vertically integrate or disintermediate the aggregator.

Direct peers

• Educaweb: Spanish educational guidance portal that helps users find training programs, scholarships, and career information. Closely comparable content vertical and audience, with similar SEO-driven lead-gen monetization.
• Emagister: Spain- and Latin America-focused course aggregator that catalogs training from academies and educational institutions. Directly comparable to Cursos SEPE in business model (lead-gen for course providers) and audience (Spanish-speaking learners), though broader in scope.

Emerging players

• Domestika: Spanish-origin global online course marketplace for creative and professional skills. Comparable Spanish-speaking audience and course-discovery model, but with owned/hosted paid courses rather than external subsidized listings.
• Crehana: Spanish-speaking online learning platform focused on Latin America and Spain. Overlaps in Spanish-speaking professional development audience but offers paid owned content rather than aggregated free courses.
