2 The Z Route

This is an intensive process. It consists of activities that match what you can do. You learn the Dutch language as much as possible, if you succeed at A1 level. If necessary, you start the process with learning to read and write. You will also learn how to arrange things yourself in the Netherlands. We support you in finding (volunteer) work or participating in activities that suit your skills. If you follow the Z-route, you will not get an integration exam. There are mandatory parts and you follow 800 hours of lessons and walk 800 hours internship at an organization in Tilburg. If you have done this and have had a final interview with your client director, you have complied with the integration obligation.

What is the Z route?

Je leert zoveel mogelijk de Nederlandse taal, als het lukt op A1 niveau. Als het nodig is, begin je het traject met leren lezen en schrijven. Ook leer je hoe je zelf dingen kunt regelen in Nederland. We ondersteunen je bij het vinden van (vrijwilligers)werk of het deelnemen aan activiteiten die passen bij wat jij kunt. Als je de Z-route volgt, krijg je geen inburgeringsexamen.

In de Z-route moet je 800 uur taalles (3 keer per week 3 uur) volgen en 800 uur participeren bij een organisatie in Tilburg. Als je dat hebt gedaan en een eindgesprek hebt gehad met je Klantregisseur, heb je voldaan aan de inburgeringsplicht.

2. What is the goal?

Het doel van de Z-route is dat je 800 uur deelneemt aan de lessen en 800 uur participeert. Hierbij leer je zo veel mogelijk. Als je dit hebt gedaan, beslist de gemeente of je hebt voldaan aan de inburgeringsplicht.

U heeft 3 jaar de tijd om aan deze uren te voldoen. Dat betreft de 800 taallesuren en de 800 participatie uren.
