The Student Support Services Division (SSSD) of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Youth and Sport is hosting the third and final workshop of the three-part series, entitled “Mindfulness: Success in Studying in The Netherlands (Part III)” on June 5, 2025 at the University of St. Martin from 6:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M.
This free workshop is aimed at helping to equip students to be successful and focuses on the psycho-social aspects of studying in the Netherlands. It is geared at secondary school students who are in their pre-exam or exam class and those who recently graduated.
This series of workshops are designed to help students understand and equip them to deal with some of the realities of studying in The Netherlands. The topics that will be covered in this final workshop of the series include integration in the Netherlands, power distance between age groups, dealing with discrimination and many more relevant psycho-social topics.
SSSD officials are encouraging persons who attended the first two workshops to attend this one. All topics that will be covered in this session are inter-related to those in the first two but are different in nature. This workshop is inter-active and participants will also be provided with tips and their questions will also be answered. The SSSD officials urged all participants to be on time.
