Peac Aragón

What Peac Aragón does

PEAC Aragón (Agencia de las Cualificaciones Profesionales de Aragón) is a public administrative agency of the Government of Aragón, Spain, established in 2019 under the Department of Education, Culture and Sports. It operates the only official procedure in the autonomous community for accrediting professional competencies acquired through work experience, formal learning, or informal training. The agency's core service is the PEAC (Procedimiento de Evaluación y Acreditación de Competencias Profesionales), which enables workers to obtain official vocational training titles and professional certificates based on demonstrated competencies. It primarily serves individual workers across Aragón's three provinces (Huesca, Zaragoza, Teruel), with the highest participation in Teruel (1,053 accreditations in 2024), and targets specialized segments including military personnel, water sector workers, emergency services employees, and vocational training students.

The agency delivers its services through SIGPEAC (Sistema Integrado de Gestión del Procedimiento de Evaluación y Acreditación de Competencias), an integrated IT platform that supports electronic registration, documentation submission, candidate tracking, and electronic signature processing. Operations are executed through a distributed network of six Centros Gestores PEAC located at public vocational training institutes (CPIFPs) across the region, supplemented by Puntos de Información information points for in-person guidance. PEAC Aragón offers more than a dozen specific qualification pathways, including professional certificates (e.g., ENAC205 for water network assembly, ELEC203 for low-voltage electrical installations, HOTC202 for mountain shelter guardianship) and vocational training qualifications (e.g., TMVT202 automotive electromechanics, ELET305 clinical electromedicine, COMT302 sales management) spanning sectors from construction and environmental management to automotive and textiles.

PEAC Aragón's revenue model is anchored in public funding from the Government of Aragón, supplemented by EU Next Generation funds channeled through the PRTR (Plan de Recuperación, Transformación y Resiliencia). Direct fees from candidates are nominal: €33.87 for the advisory phase and €16.93 per competency unit evaluated, capped at €84.65 total per candidate, with exemptions for terrorism victims and long-term unemployed individuals. The agency increasingly leverages corporate partnerships to scale throughput — including agreements with CLECE (41 emergency services workers accredited), PROFAND (90 workers in Zaragoza), and the Instituto Aragonés del Agua / Zinnae cluster (targeting 1,000+ water sector workers by 2030). In 2025, PEAC accredited 2,463 individuals and 13,002 competency standards, bringing cumulative totals since 2022 to 7,844 participants and 41,802 competency standards.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Others

• INAEM (Instituto Aragonés de Empleo): Aragón's regional employment service, explicitly mentioned as a PEAC marketing collaboration partner. INAEM channels job seekers toward PEAC procedures and shares overlap in target population (workers needing credentials), but its mandate is broader employment services rather than competency accreditation specifically.
• Cedefop (European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training): EU-level agency that supports vocational education and training policy across member states, including the European Qualifications Framework (EQF) that underpins cross-border recognition of competencies. Cedefop's work directly shapes the policy environment in which PEAC Aragón operates and validates non-formal/informal learning recognition.
• SEPE (Servicio Público de Empleo Estatal): Spain's national public employment service, which administers unemployment benefits, training programs, and job placement. SEPE shares the same target population (workers, job seekers) and intersects with PEAC's mission through vocational training pathways, though its scope is employment services broadly rather than competency accreditation.

Broad incumbents

• FUNDAE (Fundación Estatal para la Formación en el Empleo): National foundation managing Spain's vocational training subsidy system for employed workers, funded through social security contributions. FUNDAE addresses adjacent workforce training needs and represents the broader national ecosystem in which PEAC Aragón's competency accreditation function sits.
• INCUAL (Instituto Nacional de las Cualificaciones Profesionales): Spain's national qualifications institute that defines the National Catalog of Professional Competency Standards (Catálogo Nacional de Estándares de Competencia) under which PEAC operates. INCUAL sets the framework and standards that Aragón's agency implements regionally — making it the closest institutional counterpart at national scope.

Regional players

• Servei d'Ocupació de Catalunya (SOC): Catalonia's regional employment and vocational training service, which includes competency accreditation functions analogous to PEAC Aragón. SOC operates the regional equivalent for Catalonia's labor market and represents the peer model across Spain's decentralized vocational training ecosystem.
