  • VOLTA
  • FVB Constructiv
  • mtech+
  • Educam
  • Vlaams OpleidingsVerlof
  • KMO-Portefeuille
  • Other: ask your sector fund and pass this on to ECS so that we can do what is necessary.

VOLTA

Training center targeting electricity sector employers (under PC 149.01).

FVB Contructiv

Training fund that targets employers in the construction industry (PC 124).

Attended trainings can also be considered as winter trainings during the period December-March.

Vlaams OpleidingsVerlof

ATTENTION: FOR THE NEW BASIC TRAINING AS OF 01/04/2022, THE REGISTRATION NUMBER STILL NEEDS TO BE CREATED BY VOV.

Contractors can claim Vlaams OpleidingsVerlof (VOV) for their employees for the 4-day Nuclear Safety training.
Under certain conditions, employees in the private sector are entitled to Vlaams OpleidingsVerlof (the successor of paid educational leave). They may be absent from work to follow a course, while their wages continue to be paid. The employer can be reimbursed a fixed amount as compensation.
You can find more information about the Flemish educational leave in the WSE counter.
Procedure to follow:
  • When registering your employees, you inform ECS if you wish to make use of Vlaams OpleidingsVerlof and make the necessary notifications in the WSE counter.
  • After the training, ECS confirms the presence of the participant for whom VOV was requested in the WSE office.

KMO-Portefeuille

The KMO-portefeuille is a measure that provides you - as a contractor - with financial support for the purchase of services that improve the quality of your business. In concrete terms, these are training and consultancy services, such as drawing up a communication plan for your company.

Small companies enjoy 30% support, a medium-sized company 20% support. The maximum aid ceiling per year is €7.500 aid.
