\nThe Greek economy is growing again, but decent jobs are still scarce. However, there is an opportunity to work abroad for Greeks. Especially in the Netherlands, there is a shortage of good, certified nurses. That’s why we, at Pleyade, developed an educational program called the “The Eduployment Program” which prepares upcoming professionals in healthcare for a thriving nursing career in The Netherlands.

For Greek nurses who want to build a career in the Netherlands, Eduployment starts preparing you before you move abroad. Eduployment provides intensive Dutch language training and professional guidance. After completing the Dutch language training to the required level, you move to the Netherlands and start gaining professional experience in long-term care with a Dutch healthcare organisation. For qualified nurses, the pathway also includes preparation for BIG registration, which is required to practise as a registered nurse in the Netherlands.

The Eduployment Programme in a nutshell

Greek nursing students and graduate nurses who are searching for work abroad are able to apply for the Eduployment Programme through the website. It’s all self-explanatory. After signing up, you’ll follow a full- or part-time course in Dutch language, attaining level B1+.

After completing the course, we’ll invite you to the Netherlands. For students this will be for an Erasmus internship of 6, 9 or 12 months and for graduate nurses – it is a work programme 'CV-Boosting' with a commitment of 2 years after registering in the BIG register. The housing is arranged prior to your arrival and students are given a scholarship, where certified nurses will be paid a competitive salary. Erasmus students can use this time to figure out whether they want to continue with our CV-boosting programme for working as a nurse in the Netherlands.

Next up

For qualified nurses, BIG registration is an important step towards practising the nursing profession in the Netherlands. Registration provides the legal basis for practising as a registered nurse in the Netherlands, while iIndividual employers and healthcare sectors may have additional requirements for experience, language proficiency, specialist qualifications or further training.

And then you can take full advantage of our opportunities by having your dream job while you benefit from the continuous possibility to develop and improve yourself as a nurse.

What you’ll get

When applying for the Eduployment Program and preparing yourself to work abroad as a Greek nurse, you invest time and effort in working at our organization. If selected you receive in return:

  • a free beginner’s course with an introductory period in which you get paid.
  • a free follow-up program to get your language skills to the required level of a professional nurse.
  • help during all periods of your study.
  • arranged housing during your language training (if the course is outside your place of residence)
  • competitive salaries with extra payments for working irregular hours, overtime and on Sundays and public holidays.
  • a continuous development program for personal and professional growth.
  • an introduction to other healthcare institutions after two years (if a career switch is desired).
  • support from other Greek nurses, who are working here and have successfully completed the programme.

About the opportunities to work abroad for Greeks

You gain your first Dutch work experience in long-term care, where you care for elderly clients and work alongside Dutch healthcare professionals. This allows you to become familiar with Dutch standards and protocols while further developing your professional Dutch language skills. After gaining relevant experience and completing the agreed commitment period, you can determine your next career step. This may include further education, specialisation or opportunities in other healthcare sectors such as hospitals.

As a nurse, I was looking for an opportunity to work in the Netherlands, and Eduployment made that dream come true. They supported me at every step of my journey and gave me the opportunity to learn Dutch, including the language of nursing.

\n

Through Eduployment, I got a job in the Dutch healthcare system, and they continue to support me at every step of my career. I truly appreciate the guidance, encouragement, and dedication of the entire team.

\n

Thank you to the whole Eduployment team! Because of your support, I am where I am today.

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”
