Project Internationals in de klas

Internationals in de klas offers highly educated internationals the opportunity to apply their knowledge and experience in Dutch education. By learning the language and obtaining a diploma, they become qualified to teach. International talent and local education strengthen one another, enriching schools with new expertise and colleagues. This programme is specifically designed for internationally educated STEM professionals who are considering teaching in the Netherlands but lack familiarity with the Dutch education system, language requirements, or certification pathways. Internationals in de klas is a collaboration between Brainport Development, ASML, Expat Spouses Initiative (ESI), ESoE (TU/e), Fontys, Onderwijsregio Brabant-Oost, Trion Opleidingsschool, and AOS-Zuidoost-Brabant.
