Frequently asked questions.
I obtained my diploma abroad, can I use this to start work with you? +

Do I need a Dutch language certificate to work with you? +
In childcare, you need a B1 & B2 or 3F Dutch language certificate. This certificate is not necessary for after-school care. We have a limited number of vacancies for English-speaking pedagogical assistants at various locations.
Do I comply the 3F IKK and 3F VE language requirements?
The IKK language requirement will come into effect on January 1, 2025. This means that all educational staff must demonstrate that they have mastered the oral skills - Speaking, Conversations and Listening - at level 3F. The language requirement already applies to employees in a VE group. As an additional requirement, they must also master Reading at level 3F.
