I’m an OT with 3 years experience in a inpatient rehabilitation center in the US. Part of my family lives in The Netherlands and I’d like to work there. I was wondering if anyone had information about how to get certified/qualified to work there and how long would it take or how difficult the process is?

Any information would be much appreciated!

    I have a friend that has good success working in the international schools, you might want to consider that if you have pediatric practice skills.

    Hi !

    I am an Occupational Therapist in Sweden and am looking into the possibility to work in the Netherlands. I have Afrikaans as first language and could therefore pick up Dutch relatively quickly. What is the process... more importantly where does one start. I also have worked in variety of fields such as Stroke and Neuro rehab, and Pain management ( specialist clinic)
    Is there anyone that I could book a "zoom meeting" with to chat and to get the lay of the land.

    Thank you in advance
