Each career bootcamp edition is limited to a maximum of 8 participants. Participants must be able to attend all the sessions.

EURES is a European cooperation network of employment services, designed to facilitate the free movement of workers. The network has always worked hard to ensure that European citizens can benefit from the same opportunities, despite language barriers, cultural differences, bureaucratic challenges, diverse employment laws and a lack of recognition of educational certificates across Europe.

UWV is a public service provider that seeks to help everyone access the labour market. This is done in many ways: by applying the human dimension to services, improving existing services, and working together with external partners. UWV also supports employers, shares employment data with other public service providers, and shares knowledge about the Dutch labour market.
