SEPE Career Guidance: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to access free career counseling and CV workshops if you are currently registered as a job seeker in Spain.
This scheme provides professional support to help individuals navigate their career paths through specialized counseling and practical skill-building workshops.
Who it's for
To qualify for this support, you must be officially registered as a job seeker. This registration is a necessary step to access the specific professional guidance services provided under this scheme.
What you get
The program offers two main types of support to help you enter or advance in the workforce. First, you can access career counseling, which provides professional guidance to help you understand your options and plan your next career steps. Second, you can participate in CV workshops. These workshops are designed to help you create or improve your professional resume, ensuring you can present your skills and experience effectively to potential employers.
What it costs you
The counseling and workshops themselves are free of charge. However, there is an administrative requirement: you must first complete your registration at your local employment office. You will need to interact with the local office to ensure your status as a job seeker is active and updated before you can begin participating in the guidance sessions.
The catch to know
Because these services are managed through local employment offices, the level of support you receive is not uniform. The quality and specific types of advice or workshops offered can vary depending on the specific office you visit and the resources available in your local area.
How to apply
- Locate your local employment office in your area.
- Ensure you are officially registered as a job seeker within the system.
- Speak with an official at the office to inquire about current counseling sessions.
- Ask for the schedule of upcoming CV workshops to help improve your professional documents.
