Before you ask
Do the courses cost anything?
Most of what we offer is free for participants because it is publicly funded. Where a fee applies, it is always stated in the course description.
Do I need a particular residence status?
No. Our open programmes are open to everyone. For AZAV-funded measures the funding body’s conditions apply — we will check that with you.
Can I bring my children?
Ask us. We arrange childcare for some courses, and children are always welcome at the speaking café.
Are courses held online?
Some are. Every listed date says whether it is in person, online or hybrid.
Not sure what fits?
Send us one sentence about your situation and we will get back to you.
