The Eduployment Programme

Learning Dutch for Your Nursing Career

A meaningful start in Dutch healthcare begins with the language. To work safely and confidently as a nurse or assistant nurse in the Netherlands, you’ll need at least B1+ level Dutch. This isn’t just a formal requirement, it’s essential for building trust with your patients, understanding medical instructions, and communicating clearly with your team.
  • Relocation and Integration Support
  • Sponsored Language Training
  • Guaranteed Job Placement

At Eduployment, we guide you step by step with specialized online training, designed specifically for nursing professionals. You’ll learn the kind of Dutch you’ll actually use daily on the job, helping you feel more prepared and connected from day one.

A strong foundation in the Dutch language not only supports your daily work and communication, it also opens doors to further specialisation and professional growth within the Dutch healthcare system. We’re here to help you grow, both in your language skills and in your nursing career.

The Delft learning method

At Eduployment, we help nurses and assistant nurses prepare for their careers in the Netherlands through intensive, healthcare-focused Dutch language training. Our programme is built around the Delft Method, a proven language-learning approach designed to get you speaking with confidence, quickly and effectively.

Rather than focusing on grammar rules, you’ll learn practical phrases and real-life language you can immediately apply in everyday situations and healthcare settings. Our programme is tailored to the working life of nurses, where clear, respectful communication is essential, for patient safety, teamwork, and trust.

We’ve enriched the Delft Method with many extra tools, coaching, and vocabulary for nurses. This makes our language training not only effective, but also highly relevant to the reality of Dutch healthcare.

Learning Dutch through practical experience

At Eduployment, we believe the best way to learn a language is by using it. That’s why our Dutch language course is also built around real-life healthcare situations. You won’t just study words, you’ll actively practise them in context.

Through roleplays, team conversations, and simulated patient dialogues, you’ll become familiar with the language you’ll use on the job. From handovers with colleagues to comforting a patient or following medical instructions, you’ll gain confidence where it matters most.

Our training is tailored to your role as a nurse or assistant nurse and fully prepares you for working in a Dutch-speaking healthcare environment, so you can communicate clearly, safely, and with heart.

The best preparation for a career in Dutch healthcare

Working in healthcare in the Netherlands goes far beyond knowing a few Dutch words. You need to understand medical protocols, write clear handovers, and communicate with patients, colleagues, and doctors, confidently and precisely.

Our Dutch language training gives you the tools to take on real responsibilities from day one. It’s not just about learning the language; it’s about adapting quickly, feeling confident in your role, and becoming part of your team.

With the right preparation, you’ll feel at home, professionally and socially, in your new work environment.

Real stories from our students

Ana Munaiz

“I think Eduployment is a good option for people who don’t know the language and want to live and work in the Netherlands. Because it has an online course with flexibility that adapts to individual rhythms. It also offers accommodation, depending on the city it can be a big challenge to find something on your own. In short, Eduployment gives the boost to start your life in a new country.”

Sylvia Agarici

If you’re a nurse looking for a seamless move to the Netherlands, Eduployment is your ultimate partner! From day one, they were by my side—starting with my very first Dutch lesson, guiding me through the BIG registration process, and even helping me secure my own apartment in the Netherlands. Moving abroad can be overwhelming, but with Eduployment’s support every step of the way, the transition felt smooth and stress-free. Their team made what seemed daunting into an exciting journey!”

Matthias Christen

“The teachers and management of Eduployment were always available to answer questions. I had some difficulties feeling at home in the Netherlands. The aftercare offered by Eduployment made this a lot easier. They guided me throughout my whole two-year contract.”

Tonia Karapidaki

“It is pleasant that Eduployment supports me still. We recently moved into a very nice apartment. Eduployment was there to help us move. Someone even came by with a screw driver to help us assemble some cabinets, and a pipe wrench to connect the washing machine.”

Altea Koutsiouki

“The collaboration with Εduployment started about two years ago. Within a year I was able to speak and understand Dutch at a good level. After arriving in the Netherlands, the challenges I faced were many, but step by step and with patience, I can proudly say that one year later I have managed to achieve many of my goals and, most importantly, I have slowly gained the confidence I needed to grow professionally! During this time, Εduploymet supported me every time I needed it. Here’s to what’s to come next!”

Inês Ramos

“Dutch is a bit difficult at first, but it is possible! You have to focus on it. Learning Dutch should be your job; you should spend a lot of time learning a new language. I’m glad I decided to learn Dutch with Eduployment.”

Asta Kuodiene

“I was among the first group to be trained by Eduployment. We received excellent guidance and were able to make a good start with our Dutch employer. Some of my colleagues are still working there. I always wanted to work in forensic psychiatry. Thanks to my good knowledge of Dutch, help from Eduployment and the start in the Dutch nursing home, I succeeded.”

Ágnes Hajas

“I really like this job, because here every day is a challenge and that’s what I like. After I started, I passed the national knowledge test for triage assistant within five weeks. My audits are good and, in the meantime, I have also obtained my diploma. I am very satisfied with what I have achieved. The free language course from Eduployment was a very good investment!”

Alberto Soto

“The support of Eduployment was much needed, because we had no idea about the Dutch system. This support meant a lot to me, because most procedures require several steps that are difficult to solve on your own. Furthermore, the Eduployment team visited us a lot in the beginning to talk to us about how things were going and if we had any questions. That is very nice.”

Eglė Skersienė

“Eduployment has helped me get through this period very well, by offering lots of practical help, personal support and a solid track. Also, my colleagues who entered this programme with me in 2003 have meant a lot to me and we still keep in touch.”
