FORCOOP CORA VENEZIA

What FORCOOP CORA VENEZIA does

FORCOOP CORA VENEZIA is a nonprofit Italian cooperative (Società Cooperativa, legal name FORCOOP CORA VENEZIA SC) founded in 1990 in Noventa di Piave, in the Veneto Region of Italy. The organization is accredited by Regione del Veneto as an Organismo di Formazione (OdF, code A0162) and provider of Servizi al Lavoro (SL, code L126), and is also accredited for Orientation. Its core business is the design and delivery of training, career orientation, and labor-market intermediation services for job seekers, employed workers seeking upskilling, third-country nationals, women, NEETs, and over-50s, with roughly 300 annual users and ~15 employees.

The service portfolio is organized in three interconnected layers. The first layer is direct accredited delivery: Servizi al Lavoro (job placement, work experience, orientation), Corsi di Formazione (training catalogs in tourism, hospitality, digital, green economy, viticulture, food service), Orientamento al Lavoro (career counseling, skills assessment, validation and certification), and physical service desks such as the Sportello Orienta Lavoro operated jointly with municipalities. The second layer is participation in national and regional active labor-market programs, including the PNRR-backed GOL program (Garanzia Occupabilità dei Lavoratori) and regional work-experience schemes such as S.L.A.L.O.M. 2026 (Destination Management for Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympics), FORTI (event organization), Job Site 2.0, and Walk on the Job Site. The third layer is an ecosystem of roughly 30 EU- and regionally-funded projects spanning digital transformation (Non Solo Tecnologia), urban regeneration (Veneto Villa Works, INN Veneto), sustainable and river tourism (ESIVER, Enjoy the Rivers, Veneto Rivers Experience, Giralivenza Slowfood Travel), cultural heritage (HeritAccess, Palcoscenici Veneziani, Piave Heritage), gender equality (Fem Factor Dolomiti, 5 Goals), intergenerational workforce management (JOY, Age Factor), and early-childhood inclusion (N.O.I.).

Revenue mechanics are grant-funded rather than transactional: the organization finances operations through EU programs (FSE+, FESR, Erasmus+, Interreg, PNRR) and Regione del Veneto regional funds (DGR-funded projects), with no disclosed paying end customers. The only consumer-facing pricing is for the FO.CO coworking space in San Donà di Piave (€30–€300 + VAT across Basic, Plus, Comunità, Ora!, Community Plus, and meeting-room tiers). The organization is a founding member of the Italian C.O.R.A. network (since 1996) and a member of the European TandemPlus network (since 2009, 18 organisms across 13 countries), with partnerships extending to ENSA, unions, trade associations, universities (Ca' Foscari/Università IUAV referenced as Unive), local health authorities, makerspace/FabLab networks, and 40 active project partners.

Core offering

FORCOOP CORA VENEZIA delivers accredited vocational training courses, employment and labor services (Servizi al Lavoro), career orientation, and a coworking space (FO.CO) in the Veneto region. Services are primarily delivered under public funding programs (FSE+, FESR, Erasmus+, PNRR-GOL) and are targeted at job seekers, workers needing reskilling, NEETs, third-country nationals, women, and over-50 workers, alongside SMEs requiring workforce training.

Product overview

FORCOOP CORA VENEZIA is an accredited training and employment services organization operating in the Veneto region since 1990. Its portfolio is organized around three interconnected pillars: (1) direct services — labor services (Servizi al Lavoro), training courses (Corsi di Formazione), career orientation (Orientamento al Lavoro), and physical service desks such as Sportello Orienta Lavoro; (2) active labor market programs including the national GOL Program and multiple FSE+/regional work experience initiatives (L2 MiCo/S.L.A.L.O.M., FORTI, Job Site 2.0, Walk on the Job Site) delivering training, internships, and coaching; and (3) an ecosystem of funded European, national, and regional projects covering digital transformation (Non Solo Tecnologia), urban regeneration (Veneto Villa Works), sustainable and river tourism (ESIVER, Enjoy the Rivers, Veneto Rivers Experience, Giralivenza Slowfood Travel), cultural heritage (HeritAccess, Palcoscenici Veneziani), gender equality (Fem Factor Dolomiti), intergenerational workforce management (JOY, Age Factor), early childhood services (N.O.I.), youth activation (EsploraTe), and inclusion of third-country nationals. The FO.CO coworking space rounds out the offering as a physical workspace and events venue. No single unified software product exists; the organization is a service provider delivering training, orientation, and project management services primarily funded by EU and regional programs.
