A place in our society
At NewBees, newcomers prepare for work, in a place in our society.
Our main pillars in brief:
Customization
Focusing on people through customization is the way to help newbees take the first step. By doing so, newbees discover their talents and gain the confidence to get started.
Hands-on experience
Learning by doing, works.
You can only improve your Dutch by talking, and you expand your network by meeting people. Our traineeships are designed for this.
Equivalence
We believe in talent. In a society where everyone has the opportunity to utilize their talent. Wherever you come from. Our matches are therefore based on talent and equality.
Impact for everyone
With our approach we create an impact for everyone. For newcomers, municipalities, participating organizations and for society as a whole.
