ForAvant has consolidated its position as a leading operator in railway training in Spain during the 2025/2026 fiscal year, in a context of sustained sector growth and increased demand for qualified professionals.
The company maintains an active relationship with over 90% of the country's railway companies, currently managing more than 60% of railway certifications. Its portfolio includes over 300 client companies, with more than 5,000 students trained in the last five years, demonstrating a broad operational reach and a solid presence within the railway business community.
This positioning has been externally recognized with the awarding of the 2025 Elite Prize from La Razón newspaper for best railway training company, a milestone that reinforces the credibility of ForAvant's training model and its contribution to the sector's development.
In terms of investment, the company has increased its resources allocated to technology and digitalization by 500%, notably the commissioning of new advanced simulation infrastructure in Madrid and Seville, as well as the opening of its new headquarters in Madrid (Avda. de Manoteras), strengthening its national territorial coverage.
From an academic and operational perspective, ForAvant has expanded its teaching staff by more than 25%, exceeding 20,000 hours of practical training delivered and maintaining an 85% success rate in certification processes—indicators that reflect the efficiency of its training model.
The service catalog covers all railway certifications regulated by the AESF (Spanish Railway Safety Agency), driving licenses, specialized technical training, and refresher programs, offering solutions tailored to the operational requirements of railway companies.
This model is based on process optimization, personalized technical advice and comprehensive training management, allowing organizations to outsource a critical function with guarantees in a regulated and highly demanding environment.
