Exams in the Netherlands

INTEGRATION COURSE

Have you recently moved to the Netherlands, and you are not from the EU? Then there is a high chance that you will have an integration obligation and you must take integration exams. Or maybe it is a good idea to apply for a Dutch passport in your personal situation.


TARTON therefore offers an integration course that looks like this:

  • The regular group course focuses on achieving language level A2 (in just over 1 year) or B1 (in just over 2 years) for writing, reading, listening and speaking skills.
  • The KNM exam can be prepared for at home by studying independently.
  • Assignments for the portfolio 'Orientation Dutch Labour Market' must be completed at home, which can be prepared during private lessons.
  • Finally, it is possible to follow a short exam training for language skills. (private or small group)

NOTE: TARTON does not work with DUO loans! It is also not possible to receive an 'Exemption due to demonstrable efforts made' (AGI). This is proof that you have followed a course for at least 600 hours, so that you can apply for an exemption from the integration obligation.

I would like more information about this
  • Elena Aliendikova – following integration process, from Ukraine
    The lessons were really nice. I improved my skills in speaking and writing, because Joyce can explain everything clearly. The language lessons are suitable for beginners and advanced learners.
    Thank you very much Joyce for your help!
  • Diesel Wong – expat, from Taiwan
    We learn Dutch so we can speak with people in daily life. That is what I was looking for. In the lessons, I can improve my grammar and pronunciation. I'm confident that I'm learning Dutch in the right way.
  • Deniz Schindler – international, from Turkey
    I find learning from a textbook boring, so I wanted to learn in a different way. Joyce could offer that, so that's when our adventure began. Now we are working on different language issues that we encounter and for me that's really enjoyable, varied and effective.
  • Wunpen Leather – following integration process, from Thailand
    We worked on the ONA portfolio: filled in results cards and prepared for the interview. After the lessons I had more confidence in speaking Dutch. I passed the integration exams!
