The Netherlands is a trading nation par excellence. Export-oriented wholesale trade is the driving force behind the Dutch economy. Borders are blurring; the sector has a strong international focus. With your diploma, you can find work in many different fields: in a retail business or wholesale trade, but also in a manufacturing company, for example.

We offer training in secretarial, financial, legal, and administrative fields. Business services is the largest employer in the Netherlands. In total, there are approximately 200.000 companies active in this sector. Think of banks, insurance companies, employment agencies, accountants, law firms, and notary offices. But the government, hospitals, municipalities, and other companies also offer opportunities. On kiesmbo.nl, you can find more information about possible professions and job prospects. Of course, you can also continue your education after your training.

Summa Economics & Business collaborates with the business community. Our guest lecturers and permanent instructors come from the business world and professional services sector. We bring practical experience into our courses through real-world assignments. This ensures our courses are relevant, realistic, and up-to-date.
