Choose your format
The content, the teacher and the certificate are the same in all three formats. What differs is the focus and the planning, and that's reflected in the price.
With your team
Most affordable per person from four participants.
- From four participants
- Built around your own cases
- On location or remote
- Subsidy often possible
In a group
The usual way: you share the teacher with a few others and follow a fixed schedule.
- Fixed start date, fixed schedule
- Small group of fellow students
- Shared teacher
Individual
For anyone who prefers to work at their own pace.
- Start whenever you want
- Your own pace and planning
- Teacher just for you
- Personal guidance
Flexible payment
Payment options
Through your employer, with a voucher or in instalments: there's usually a way that works. Not sure which fits you? We're happy to think it through with you, free and without obligation.
Option 1
Through your employer
We can invoice your employer directly, with 30 days to pay. If it helps, we'll give you a training plan to discuss internally.
Option 2
With a government contribution
A UWV training voucher or a municipal voucher can cover (part of) the cost. We're on the approved lists, CRKBO-registered, and glad to help with the application.
Training with colleagues? Your employer may be able to use the SLIM subsidy; we're happy to do the application together.
Option 3
Paying yourself
Pay the full amount at once, or spread it: 3 or 5 instalments at no extra cost, or an interest-free loan through TechMeUp. You choose when you register.
