The Eduployment Programme

International Nursing Jobs in Europe

Finding a job in healthcare with a competitive salary and decent working conditions might be tough in your home country, but not in all EU member states. In some countries, there is a shortage of good staff. Therefore Eduployment offers job-seeking caretakers a chance at international nursing jobs in Europe, specifically in the Netherlands.

To ensure our nurses meet the needs of our clients and patients, it is crucial they are able to communicate in Dutch. That’s why we’ve developed an educational program which prepares applicants for their international nursing career in the best possible way. Ultimately, you’ll end up working in nursing homes, general hospitals or psychiatric institutions.

The Eduployment Program: Step 1

Certified EU nurses looking for international nursing jobs in Europe can apply for the Eduployment Program. After that, you’ll follow a preparatory language course in which we’ll teach you the most important words and basic phrases to understand and express yourself in the Dutch language.

After completing the course, we invite you to the Netherlands for a paid introduction period of approximately 3 months in which you’ll get acquainted with the Dutch customs in healthcare and your future coworkers while performing ‘Activities of Daily Living’ for our clients. Meanwhile, you’ll benefit from arranged housing and a competitive salary.

Step 2

After this introduction period, you’ll follow another language course in which you’ll learn to master the Dutch language at an advanced level. That is required for passing a state examination, which in turn is a requirement for applying for a Dutch nurse registration. With the registration, you’ll be qualified to carry out your profession as a nurse in professional institutions.

Step 3

As a licensed Dutch nurse, your career as a professional caretaker can really take off. While you’re working at the Dutch nursing home, we’ll continue to offer you possibilities to grow in your role as a nurse with full responsibility or to develop yourself in different aspects of nursing required in all kinds of institutes.

When you apply at Eduployment for international nursing jobs in Europe, you are investing valuable time and effort into working at our organization. In return, we take care of the rest. Amongst other things, we offer you:

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.”
