Tortosactiva

What Tortosactiva does

Tortosactiva is a municipal employment and training service wholly owned and operated by the Ajuntament de Tortosa (Tortosa City Council), a local government entity in the Terres de l'Ebre region of Catalonia, Spain. Founded in 1991 with 18 employees, the organization operates as a free, single-window public service delivering integrated employment intermediation, vocational training, career orientation, and entrepreneurship support to local citizens. Its core product portfolio spans the Formació (vocational training) line offering six professional families leading to official Certificats de Professionalitat, the Servei Local d'Ocupació and authorized Agència de col·locació (placement agency No. 0900000148) for job matching, subsidized employment programs (Treball i Formació, Integral Plus, Treball als Barris), orientation programs for youth and vulnerable groups, the Espai del Viver d'Empreses business incubator, the Koiné coworking community, and the Emprenedoria i PAE service for self-employed registration. The underlying technology is modest: a virtual classroom (Aula Virtual) for hybrid course delivery, web-based self-registration portals at agencia.tortosa.cat for candidates, employers, and students, and the Koiné digital community platform.

Tortosactiva serves four primary user segments: unemployed individuals and job seekers, companies seeking workers, workers seeking subsidized vocational training, and entrepreneurs (including a municipal business incubator). Secondary segments include youth aged 16-29 at risk of early school leaving and vulnerable populations (people 52+, DONO recipients, women, long-term unemployed, irregular migrants). Critically, all services are provided free of charge to end users — there is no commercial pricing model. The organization's revenue is not earned commercially but rather flows from public budgets: Ajuntament de Tortosa, subsidies from the Servei d'Ocupació de Catalunya (SOC), Generalitat de Catalunya, Diputació de Tarragona, Ministerio de Trabajo y Economía Social, and European Social Fund co-financing. ISO 9000 certification covers all major service lines, and the entity is a designated ACTIC collaborating center for digital competency certification.

The operating footprint is strictly regional, limited to Tortosa, the Baix Ebre county, and the broader Terres de l'Ebre territory. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through a walk-in office (C/ Nova Estació 21), self-serve online portals, and referral channels via partner public institutions. The parent Ajuntament de Tortosa holds CIF P4315700G, and the service also operates under trade names including Centre de Formació Ocupacional and Agència de col·locació Tortosactiva – Ajuntament de Tortosa.
