If your employer invests in Dutch training for its employees, then the government programme Tel Mee Met Taal can help. The programme offers co-financing for Dutch training for employees with Dutch skills lower than B1 level with a maximum of €1000 per participant available (maximum subsidy per company €125.000). The application process is simple and we can help if required.
The new application round is open from January 1 2023 until February 28 2023 and €3.35m in funding is available. Should the applications exceed €3.35m, awards will be allocated on the basis of a draw. Our clients have benefitted significantly from Tel Mee Met Taal, with more than €100.000 being allocated to them in 2020, 2021 and 2022.
