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.

Anyone living in Drenthe can walk in without an appointment and be pointed to the right regional organisation for work or retraining.
About
Werkcentrum Drenthe is a shared regional service point where residents and employers in Drenthe can bring questions about work, education and personnel. Its own privacy statement states that it is a collaboration and not a legal entity in its own right. The partners it names include the province of Drenthe, the municipalities of Borger-Odoorn, Coevorden, De Wolden, Emmen, Hoogeveen and Midden-Drenthe, the national employee insurance agency, employer and employee organisations, the vocational education cooperation body, several colleges and social development enterprises. Its help is organised around three starting points: looking for other work, wanting to develop or retrain, and being an employer with questions about staff, retraining or socially responsible business. Staff begin from the visitor's own question, give advice that fits the situation, and then either help directly or pass the person to the right partner in the regional network. People can walk in at two staffed locations, in Emmen and Hoogeveen, or at smaller drop-in points in a library in Beilen and at a social team office in Borger. A callback form is the other route in.
