Subsidy
Apply for language course subsidies now
From January 1, 2017, to July 1, 2017, employers can apply for subsidies for language courses for cleaners or other low-literate employees, according to the Tel Mee Met Taal (Count on Skills) subsidy scheme. With this subsidy, the Ministries of Education, Culture and Science (OCW), Social Affairs and Employment (SZW), and Health, Welfare and Sport (VWS) aim to encourage employers to invest in the language proficiency of their employees. Through this subsidy, employers can receive reimbursement for up to 67% of the costs of the language course. The subsidy is intended for courses that do not fall under the Adult Education Act (WEB) or Civic Integration.
It is possible for employers to apply for the subsidy themselves and search for a language provider. Taal in het Bedrijf, part of TopTaal, provides language courses for the business sector that are practice-oriented and tailor-made. Taal in het Bedrijf has years of experience with these courses in various sectors, including cleaning, healthcare, and logistics. Taal in het Bedrijf has developed a suitable offer for various industries that includes support with the administrative processing of the subsidy application.
