Did you know that, according to the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science, the demand for skilled tech professionals in the Netherlands is set to rise to over 60,000 by 2025? If you're ready to take your career to the next level, but the cost of training is holding you back, don't worry - there are affordable and accessible student financing options available to help you reach your goals.

If you're considering taking one of our full-time or part-time academies and bootcamps, but are concerned about the cost, don't worry! We have partnered with two financing institutions, Finance4Learning and TechMeUp, to help make our courses accessible to everyone.

Finance4Learning offers students the opportunity to finance their course fees for up to 72 months, providing a flexible payment plan that makes it easier for you to invest in your future career. The application process is quick and straightforward, requiring only a simple form to be completed. Finance advisors will be in touch with you shortly after you apply, and you can apply for financing of up to €6500. The funding is provided by Santander, one of the world's largest banks, and is backed by the European Investment Fund. In the Netherlands, Finance4Learning has exclusive access to a €50 million fund for student financing, ensuring that our courses are accessible to a broader range of learners.

TechMeUp offers an alternative financing option through their scholarship fund, which is specifically designed to support underrepresented individuals in the tech industry. The fund provides interest-free loans for tech-related education, enabling you to enrol in our courses without incurring high interest rates. Once you have secured employment, you can start paying back the loan, interest-free. Applying for a scholarship is straightforward and can be done through TechMeUp's website. This financing option not only provides access to our courses but also helps to promote diversity and inclusivity within the tech industry.

Whether you choose Finance4Learning or TechMeUp, both institutions offer financing options that make our courses accessible to a wider range of people. With the help of these financing options, you can pursue your dreams of becoming a software developer, cyber specialist, or data analyst without worrying about the financial burden. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to pursue their passions and build a fulfilling career in the tech industry, and our financing partners help make that a reality.
