The last steps before you start working for paid
This support helps you to take the last steps towards paid work. Together with your supervisor you look at what you need and how you can best provide your support. You can also get started at a 'developing location'. This is a temporary workplace to gain work experience and get back into it a bit.
1.
What is it?
In this process you take the last steps towards paid work. Together with your supervisor you look at what you need and how you can best provide your support. Think about:
- a training to stand up for yourself better
- a training to get more out of yourself
- a training to improve your health/lifestyle
Everything is tailor-made and in consultation with you! You will have contact with your supervisor for approximately one and a half hours every two weeks. You will also work at a development site. This is a temporary workplace to gain work experience and get back into it a bit. The workplaces are available in all kinds of sectors. It will help you in your further job search. You agree with your supervisor how many days per week you will work. You can use various additional training courses in a digital learning environment to further improve your competences. In any case, you record everything in an action plan.
2.
What is the goal?
Through the training and the development location, you gain more skills and you get to know yourself and the labor market better. You work on your learning goals and are back in the work rhythm. You also gain new work experience, which increases the chance of paid work.
3.
How long does it take?
The process takes an average of six months. You have contact with your supervisor for about one and a half hours every two weeks and you are active at a workplace for about 8 to 24 hours a week. If you follow a training, your working hours will be taken into account. Training days are an average of 2 half-days per week. It depends on which and how many training sessions you follow and how often these training days are.

What does the contact look like?
You will go to your development location on time this morning. You start at 8:00 AM. You are now starting to get used to the normal day and night rhythm and to get up early. You have now met many people in this workplace and you notice that you are starting to feel better. At the end of the morning you will have an evaluation meeting and your regular supervisor will come by to discuss how everything is going. They are very happy at your workplace and you get compliments. Your supervisor will also let you know that you will receive a next week job application training and that she has seen a nice vacancy for you. When you come home in the afternoon you will have received an email with the vacancy. You agree with your supervisor that you will write a motivation letter for this job together. Even closer to that job you want so badly!
