Skill up – Werk klaar

There are many solid ways to build a stable life in the Netherlands. Not everyone follows the same path — and that’s a good thing. Skill up – Werk klaar is a practical event focused on real opportunities, real training, and real stories from people doing the work every day.

You’ll hear what it actually takes to get started, how qualifications are recognized, and where support exists if you’re entering with limited or foreign experience.
