50% discount on Dutch courses up to level B1

The Board of the University will reimburse 50% of the course fee for UG staff for Dutch courses up to level B1! This allows you to take a Dutch course at an attractive rate. The discount applies to Dutch courses up to level B1 in the categories below.

Dutch courses for UG staff from level B1

Have you reached B1 level in Dutch and want to progress further? We offer three Dutch courses at level B1 and higher specifically for UG staff members. These courses are taught in small groups made up exclusively of UG staff. This way, you will receive a lot of personal feedback and practise real-life situations at the UG.

Besides these courses for UG staff, you can also register for one of the courses below starting at level B1, which are available to everyone. As a UG staff member, you will receive a 10% discount on the course fee.

FEB staff can take the courses below at the expense of their Faculty. More information about this arrangement can be found on this intranet page. Check out the courses below for more information on content and registration.

Dutch for the consultative participation body

We are offering Receptive Dutch courses specifically for international members of consultative participation bodies at the University of Groningen. In these courses, you will develop reading and listening skills in Dutch up to an advanced level and gain insights into the Dutch meeting culture.

^{We have structured the Receptive Dutch course into two parts. You can follow the parts separately and start with part 1, for example, or you can start with part 2 and follow part 1 at a later stage.}

Tailor-made training courses

Prefer a tailor-made training course in which you learn individually, or with your direct colleagues? Here you will find an overview of possible tailor-made Dutch training courses. In addition, we can develop an entirely personalised training course depending on your learning goals.
