From the Flux Forward organisation register · Not edited on this site How we check thisHide
Organisation records are published from the Flux Forward organisation register and shown here exactly as that register holds them. We do not research, write or edit them on this site, and a listing is not an endorsement or a sign that an organisation can help with your situation. Check the organisation's own website before acting.
Access runs through the municipality rather than by buying a service, so the first step for someone not yet referred is their own municipality rather than this organisation.
About
NewBees works with people who have recently arrived in the Netherlands, mainly through municipalities that commission its participation and integration route. A newcomer is normally referred by their own municipality, and anyone not yet registered is told to contact the municipality first. The route begins by working out what someone can already do and what interests them, then combines group activities with independent work and the building of an online profile that can be used as a CV for a job or a course. Alongside it there is a self-paced programme called Media in the Netherlands, for practising Dutch on your own and for learning how work, education and transport are organised here. A second side of the organisation faces employers, advising companies on opening their workplaces to people from different backgrounds. Its homepage carries marks for social enterprise status, ANBI public benefit registration, registration in the CRKBO education register and ISO 27001 certification. The office is in Amsterdam Sloterdijk.
