What do you learn at a vocational school?
At every vocational school, you develop important employee skills. These skills are based on the Good Employment Practices quality mark of MKB Nederland. Think of collaboration, independence, and language. We work with the Werkstap methodology for this. With work assignments from Werkstap, you can practice skills in practice at your own pace.
In addition to this foundation, every vocational school offers a range of specialized courses and training programs. These can be completed in the workplace or in the classroom. This allows you to learn in the way that suits you best.
