Working places for nurses – The Eduployment Program

  • Relocation and Integration Support
  • Sponsored Language Training
  • Guaranteed Job Placement
Are you looking for working places for nurses? At Pleyade, a healthcare group in the Netherlands, we offer nursing jobs for foreign caretakers since there is a shortage of good nursing staff here. But of course, you won’t be coming to Holland for nothing. We understand.

That’s why we try to make your time at Pleyade as comfortable as possible by paying a competitive salary and provide you with all the help you need to make your career in a nursing home, hospital or other healthcare institution a success. However, to claim such a job you’ll first have to complete our educational program.

The Eduployment Program, as it’s called, prepares you for succeeding in all kinds of working places for nurses in the Netherlands. Interested? Read more about our program and discover all our opportunities!

The Eduployment Program in brief

For EU-nurses, the program starts with an introductory language course in which you’ll learn how to understand and express yourself in basic Dutch. After completing the beginner’s course, we invite you to come over to the Netherlands for a paid introduction period of approximately 5 months. During this period you’ll get accustomed with Dutch healthcare guidelines, our clients and your future colleagues while having the time to figure out whether working at Pleyade is the right fit for you.

After this introduction period you continue to work on you language skills while learning more about our healthcare idiom and protocols. You’ll do so until you have reached the required level for applying for the obligated nurse registration, which can be requested after passing a state examination. Don’t worry, we’ll prepare you in the best way we can. After obtaining such registration, your nursing career can really begin.

Continuous development

But it doesn’t end there. At Pleyade, we’ll continue to offer you the possibility to grow into your role as a nurse with full responsibility. Personal growth is important for us. That’s why we also offer various training courses which you can follow to further specialize yourself in multiple disciplines, so you ultimately end up in a wide range of working places for nurses like general and psychiatric hospitals or private clinics.

Your benefits

When applying for the Eduployment Program, 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:

  • 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)

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.”
