Update programma PPO

To finance a workshop or training at Cultuur Academy , you may be eligible for a contribution through tool PPO. PPO stands for continuing professional development. Continuous professional development is important for your sustainable employability and earning power within the sector. If you invest in your professional development, Werktuig PPO invests with you.

How does it work?

The continuous development of workers in the sector is not only in the interest of workers, but also in the interest of employers and clients. Werktuig PPO encourages this by contributing up to a maximum of 1/3 of the costs, with a maximum contribution of € 2250 per 12 months. The remaining costs must be financed by the applicant, the employer or another party. The total contribution you receive from Werktuig PPO and other parties may not exceed the total cost of your plan. Click here to go to the Werktuig PPO website.

On the Werktuig PPO website, you can easily apply for co-funding for your development plan. They call this your PPO, Continuous Professional Development. The focus is on your development needs, they do not work with fixed training providers, you can choose which form of development suits you best. Also workshops or multi-day training courses of Cultuur Academy are eligible for this.
