Brief
description: Nuffic, during the Netherlands Scholarship Programme, give
scholarships for a number of elected courses presented by institutions in the Netherlands. The courses lead to a Dutch certificate or a
diploma and their duration varies from 2 weeks to 12 months.
Host Institution(s): Dutch Universities and
Institutions.
Field(s)
of study: NFP-qualified courses. Find a short course at this link then contact the Dutch higher education
institution that proposes that course to find out whether it is
NFP-qualified.
Target
group: The
NFP target group consists of professionals who are nationals of and work and
live in an NFP country. The chances of obtaining an NFP scholarship increase if
you live and work in Sub-Saharan Africa and/or if you are a woman.
Scholarship
value/inclusions: An NFP fellowship is intended to supplement the salary
that the fellow should continue to receive during the study period. The
allowance is a contribution towards the costs of living, the costs of tuition
fees, visas, travel, insurance and thesis research. If applicable, the
fellowship holder is expected to cover the difference between the actual costs
and the amount of the personal NFP allowances.
Eligibility: The NFP is meant for
professionals who are nationals of and work and live in one of the 51 NFP countries. Applicants have to be nominated by their
employer to be qualified for the fellowship. There also has to be a clear need for
training within the context of the organisation.

requirements of the programme you are applying for.
Application
instructions: You need to submit an application directly with a Dutch
higher education institution of your choice. Please contact the institution that proposes
the NFP-qualified course of your choice to ask for the application procedure.
