Skills that enable participation

To participate in society, it is important to be able to read, write, calculate and use digital applications. Over 75,000 residents lack basic skills. Brainport voor Elkaar will therefore work with the 'DigiTaalfit' programme to strengthen the basic skills of its employees through employers. We also pay attention to skills that contribute to greater mutual understanding and connection between residents and organisations, including with the 'Language Buddies at Work' programme.

Improve basic skills with DigiTaalfit

Do you struggle with language, maths or lack digital skills? If so, this can make your life quite difficult. On top of that, many people find it difficult to ask for help. So their environment and the company where they work often do not realise what is going on. With the DigiTaalfit programme, we create awareness among employers and provide tools for their employees to work on their basic skills.

Language buddies at work

Being a language buddy helps your non-native colleague with language skills: that is the idea of 'Language Buddies at Work. And that is about more than language alone. Because why do we always complain about the weather at the coffee machine? And what exactly is this lice-picking? With the 'Language Buddies at Work' programme, colleagues learn together more about the Dutch language and customs. This helps newcomers integrate faster. And we ensure a connection between colleagues and more job satisfaction.
