Fundación Sinapsis

What Fundación Sinapsis does

Fundación Sinapsis is a non-profit foundation (entidad sin fines de lucro) headquartered in Rosario, Santa Fe Province, Argentina, focused on regional socioeconomic development through education, training, and consulting services. Founded around 2011 with the establishment of Instituto Superior Particular Autorizado N° 4099 "Sinapsis," the foundation operates four interconnected business lines: (1) in-person and in-company training courses, offered as a registered "Unidad Capacitadora" under Argentina's national Programa de Crédito Fiscal (Ministry of Labor); (2) Campus Virtual Sinapsis, an online learning management system built on the MasterStudy WordPress plugin supporting both synchronous (live via Google Meet) and asynchronous course delivery; (3) Instituto Sinapsis, an officially recognized tertiary institution whose flagship Carrera de Técnico Superior en Bioseguridad, Higiene y Seguridad Laboral (Resolución Ministerial N° 1769/21) is the only such nationally-approved program in Argentina; and (4) Consultoría Integral, comprehensive business consulting covering legal, management, marketing, strategy, and HR domains.

The foundation generates revenue through three primary streams: per-course enrollment fees on the Campus Virtual platform (ranging from ARS $40,000 for short asynchronous courses to ARS $300,000 for diploma programs), customized in-company training contracts, and professional consulting engagements. Pricing follows a one-time payment model with installment plans and freemium introductory offerings. Its customer base spans SMEs and enterprises across construction, automotive, technology, education, and retail sectors, complemented by individual professional learners.

Go-to-market operates through a hybrid sales-led and self-serve model: direct B2B outreach for enterprise training and consulting, paired with a self-serve online platform for individual enrollment. The foundation's value proposition centers on its unique national regulatory credential in occupational biosafety, its broad content catalog of 60+ courses aligned with Argentine regulations, and its privileged access to the national Fiscal Credit Program — a combination that anchors its market position in the regional occupational health and safety training segment.
