You’re eager to continue developing your career, but with so many options available, you’re not sure where to start. What kind of course is right for me? Do I see myself still doing my current job in the future? And how can I best prepare for the future? If you’re working as a temporary employee, you’re entitled to professional career counseling and a budget to support your professional development.

Vroeger lag een loopbaan vaak vast. Je leerde een vak, ging aan het werk en bleef soms jarenlang in hetzelfde beroep actief. Tegenwoordig zijn de mogelijkheden bijna eindeloos. Er zijn honderden opleidingen, cursussen en beroepen om uit te kiezen. Dat biedt veel kansen, maar maakt het maken van keuzes ook lastig.

Waar moet je beginnen?

Professionele loopbaanbegeleiding

Werk je als uitzendkracht? Dan bieden wij gratis het Ontwikkelbudget aan. Vanuit deze vergoeding ontvang je professionele loopbaangeleiding van een coach.

Samen ontdek je waar jouw kwaliteiten liggen, welke beroepen of opleidingen bij je passen en welke stappen je kunt zetten om jouw doelen te bereiken.

Jouw persoonlijke budget inzetten

Vervolgens kun je het budget gebruiken voor een training, cursus of opleiding die aansluit bij jouw ontwikkelwensen. Het advies hoeft niet altijd een cursus/opleiding te zijn. Denk bijvoorbeeld ook aan financiële coaching of leefstijladvies.

Het Ontwikkelbudget aanvragen?

Meer informatie over het Ontwikkelbudget vind je op deze pagina. Je aanvraag is binnen 1 minuut geregeld.

Vergroot je kansen op de arbeidsmarkt en bereid je goed voor op de toekomst.
Volg opleidingen, cursussen of trainingen tot € 2.500.
Bepaal zelf wat je wilt leren en verbeter je vaardigheden op jouw tempo.

These are useful skills you can develop as a temporary worker

As a temporary worker, you often work in different locations, with new colleagues, and on a variety of tasks. That demands a lot from you, but it’s also what makes you unique! Temporary workers are highly flexible, quick learners, and easily adapt to working with colleagues! You might not realize it, but as a temporary worker, you often already have a strong foundation. And with a few targeted improvements, you can become even more valuable in the workplace.

Are you applying for reimbursement? Here’s what you need to keep in mind

When you apply for a reimbursement, we first check whether you are working as a temporary employee. That is why we always ask for your pay stub. Your pay stub shows that you have a temporary employment contract. This allows us to verify whether you are eligible for one of Doorzaam’s reimbursements. Please make sure you submit the correct pay stub.

What types of reimbursement are available to you?

You work as a temporary employee, but you would like to develop yourself further. Good for you! Maybe you already know what you want? Or perhaps you have no idea what suits you? Whatever your situation, Doorzaam is happy to help you.

Animation: the Opportunity Budget for temporary workers

Would you like to retrain or upgrade your skills for a profession with better job prospects? The Kansberoepbudget (Opportunity Profession Budget) can help you do just that. This allowance enables you to retrain or upgrade your skills for a promising profession. In our new animation, we explain exactly what the Kansberoepbudget entails and how you can use it.

Watch: What compensation from Doorzaam means for these temporary workers

Read the personal stories of temporary workers here. Temporary workers who, with the help of Doorzaam's allowances, have taken steps in their work and development. In these stories, they explain what learning and growing means to them. Sometimes it's about new knowledge, sometimes it's about more self-confidence or new opportunities in the workplace. These are honest experiences from real life, which show that you can always continue to participate and look ahead. Meet our latest Doorzaam Heroes below and be inspired by their experiences and stories.

Working in industry: do you keep everything running smoothly?

In industry, everything revolves around processes that must run smoothly. Machines, production lines, and people work together to make products that we use every day. If one part stops, everything stops. As a temporary worker, you can play an important role in this. Whether you work as a production worker, operator, or technical employee, your efforts ensure that the work continues and everything runs smoothly. In this article, you can read about what working in industry entails, what positions are available, how you can advance your career, and how Doorzaam can help you do so.

How Thys took his career a step further thanks to Doorzaam

Thys is a temporary worker and has enjoyed working as a truck driver for many years. He had wanted to obtain his CE driver's license for trucks for a long time. Thanks to the allowances provided by Doorzaam, he was able to take a training course and obtain his CE driver's license. This allowed Thys to take new steps in his career. We rode along with Thys for a while to hear how he experiences his work and growth.
