How training through UWV works
We're contracted by UWV under the Procurement Framework for Training Services (Aanbestedingskader Scholingsdiensten). This means we are one of the educational institutes in the Netherlands authorised to provide training that helps people return to the labour market.
When UWV pays
UWV only pays for training if it is necessary to find other suitable work. Your contact person at UWV decides, so always consult them before you enrol.
Four steps to your training
- Study advice. Together we choose the programme that fits your goal and your schedule.
- Talk to UWV. You discuss the programme with your contact person at UWV.
- Quote. We send UWV a quote with the programme, the start date and the costs.
- Start. Once UWV approves the quote, we enrol you and you start on the agreed date.

What our students say
Due to the course, the promotion quickly became a reality for me
The Data Science bootcamp has propelled me significantly in a short amount of time. Even during the course, an opportunity arose within the organization to advance to a role as a Data Scientist at an international level. Thanks to the newly acquired knowledge from the bootcamp, I was able to distinguish myself strongly, and the promotion quickly became a reality for me. The course itself was very enjoyable; the intensive interaction with fellow participants and hands-on homework assignments made it highly educational as well. I highly recommend it to anyone considering a career switch to Data Analytics / Data Science.
