You may also be eligible for one of the allowances on this website.

The Job Opportunity Budget is available for temporary workers who are currently working or worked as temporary workers no longer than four weeks ago. This budget is intended for temporary workers who want to retrain or upskill for a promising profession and are not educated beyond MBO-4 level.
