1 IntroductionThis brochure gives information on the criteria, deadlines and

procedures of the Netherlands Fellowship Programmes (NFP). It

describes the application and selection procedures and lists the

courses, programmes and activities for which these are valid.

Candidates who wish to apply for an NFP fellowship are advised to

read all information carefully and take good notice of the criteria,

deadlines and procedures. Please check our website

www.nuffic.nl/nfp for the most current information.

1.1. GeneralThe Netherlands Fellowship Programmes (NFP) are fellowship

programmes initiated and fully funded by the Dutch Ministry of

Foreign Affairs under the budget for Development Cooperation.

Aim NFPThe overall aim of the NFP is to help alleviate qualitative and

quantitative shortages of skilled manpower within a wide range of

governmental, private and non-governmental organisations. This

by offering fellowships to mid- career professionals to improve the

capacity of their employing organisations. The need for training has

to be evident within the context of an organisation. This implicates

that candidates have to be nominated by their employers.

Applications without employer support are considered not eligible.

Target groupThe NFP is targeted at mid-career professionals who are nationals

of and working and living in one of the 60 NFP countries (see annex

4 for an overview). Candidates from Sub-Saharan Africa, women

and members of priority groups and/or marginalised regions are

specifically invited to apply for an NFP fellowship. This because

50% of the available fellowships will be awarded to females and

50% of the available budget will be awarded to candidates from

Sub-Saharan Africa. Beside this, candidates from priority groups

and/or marginalised regions (to be defined by the embassies) are

explicitly invited to apply.

Country-specific prioritiesNext to the general eligibility criteria an embassy or consulate may

develop its own country-specific priorities. These reflect the

preferences of the embassy or consulate for certain applications.

These priorities can be of influence on the selection process. For

these reasons, candidates are advised to check at the embassy or

on the embassys website if country-specific priorities apply.

NFP sub-programmesThe NFP offers the following options:

Individual fellowships for:

masters degree programmes;

short courses;

PhD studies.

Subsidies for alumni activities:

Refresher courses (for NFP, NPT, NICHE and MENA alumni);

NAA start-up grants (for NFP alumni);

Co-financing of NFP alumni activities.

For each of the sub-programmes a separate section in this

brochure provides information about eligibility, application and

selection procedures and deadlines.

Gender policyThe Dutch policy regarding development cooperation gives

specific importance to gender and sexual & reproductive health and

rights. The NFP gives attention to this gender policy by highlighting

the extent to which gender is part of the courses and programmes

on the NFP Course List. There are four categories:

1. The subject of the programme is gender-oriented (e.g. gender in

the programme title);

2. The programme contains several compulsory modules dealing

with gender dimensions;

3. Gender-oriented modules are available, but not compulsory. The

programme content is not explicitly gender-oriented and no

attention is paid to gender;

4. The subject of the programme is not gender-oriented. It is not

possible to include gender-oriented modules.

The fellowshipAn NFP fellowship is intended to supplement the salary that the

fellowship holder must continue to receive (at least partially) during

the study period. The allowance is considered to be a contribution

towards the cost of living for one person, whether in the

Netherlands or in another country. A fellowship holder can therefore

be faced with additional expenses (for instance extra costs for

housing). Fellowship holders are adviced to check with the Dutch

institution if this can be the case for them. It should be noted that

NFP allowances are not sufficient to support family members,

either in the home country or in the Netherlands.

The fellowship can cover the costs of tuition fees, visas, travel,

insurance and thesis research, as specified in the NFP Rules and

regulations for fellowship holders. This can be downloaded at

www.nuffic.nl/nfp. Different conditions may apply to e-learning

courses or e-learning programmes. These conditions are also listed

in the NFP Rules and Regulations.

An NFP fellowship is granted for the duration of the course or

programme. Whilst the individual candidates are selected for a

fellowship, the grants are awarded to the Dutch higher education

institutions to enable the fellowship holders to pursue the chosen

sub-programme.

There are restrictions to the total number of fellowships candidates

can receive. Candidates are not eligible for a fellowship if a

candidate applying for:

an NFP masters degree fellowship has already received an NFP

fellowship for a masters degree;

an NFP PhD fellowship has already received an NFP-PhD

fellowship;

an NFP SC fellowship has already received two NFP SC

fellowships or has, a year prior to the application already

received an NFP SC fellowship.

In addition, a candidate employed by one of the following

organisations is not eligible:

a multinational corporation (for instance Shell, Unilever etc.) or

a large national and/-or commercial organisation or

a bilateral donor organisation (for instance USAID, DFID,

Danida, Sida, FinAid, AusAid, ADC, SwissAid etc.) or

4 www.nuffic.nl

a multilateral donor organisation, (for instance a UN

organisation, the World Bank, the IMF, Asian Development Bank,

African Development Bank, IADB, etc.) or

an international NGO (for instance civil society organisations,

Oxfam, Plan, Care, etc.)

Regional programmes and coursesThe NFP Course List also contains masters degree programmes

and short courses that take place, either fully or partly, in one of the

NFP countries, for example joint or double degree programmes. In

these cases, the Dutch institution and its partner institution in the

NFP country jointly deliver the programme. These programmes and

courses are open to all candidates, as long as the programme/

course is relevant to the candidate's employing organisation and

country.

1.2 Parties involved

Ministry of Foreign AffairsThe Ministry of Foreign Affairs fully funds the Netherlands

Fellowship Programmes under the development cooperation

budget.

Netherlands embassies and consulatesThe Netherlands embassies and consulates assess all applications

for fellowships for masters degree programmes, short courses and

PhD studies and can formulate specific recommendations for

further processing. They apply the general eligibility criteria. In

addition, they may define a policy with country-specific priorities

appropriate to the local situation.

NufficNuffic is the Netherlands organisation for international cooperation

in higher education1. As an independent, non-profit organisation

based in The Hague, the Netherlands, Nuffic supports

internationalisation in higher education, research and professional

education in the Netherlands and abroad, and helps to improve

access to higher education worldwide.

The NFP programmes are managed and administered by Nuffic.

Nuffic guides the candidate selection process for fellowships for

masters degree programmes, short courses and PhD

programmes. Nuffic drafts the lists of programmes and courses for

which NFP fellowships can be used. Nuffic also selects candidates

for PhD fellowships and evaluates proposals for refresher courses.

Dutch education institutionsThe Dutch institutions involved in the NFP are higher education

institutions or other organisations in the Netherlands specialising in

transferring knowledge and skills at a post-secondary level. The

masters degree programmes and short courses listed in this

brochure and the PhD study programmes are all offered by Dutch

institutions. These have been assessed on their capacity to receive

and teach students or professionals from various backgrounds.

The institutions assess whether candidates are academically

qualified to take part in a particular programme, course or training.

They administer the NFP fellowships for all four sub-programmes.

They also arrange the logistics and provide guidance for fellowship

holders. For all matters concerning their fellowship the fellowship

holders must contact the relevant Dutch institution.

1.3 More informationUp-to-date information can be found at www.nuffic.nl/nfp.

Specific conditions might apply in different countries. Nuffic strongly

advises candidates to check the website of the Netherlands

embassy in their own country before they start the NFP application

procedure.

A list of available websites of Netherlands embassies can be found

in annex 2.


1. See www.nuffic.nl for detailed information about Nuffic and its mission, tasks and activities.

2 Fellowships for masters degree programmesFellowship application deadline 7 February 2012 and 1 May 2012

NFP fellowships can be obtained for a selected number of masters

degree programmes. The Dutch higher education institutions offer

many international masters degree programmes. Candidates can

receive a postgraduate education and earn one of the following

Dutch degrees: Master of Arts, Master of Science, or a Professional

Masters degree. A Master of Arts or a Master of Science degree is

an academic degree, usually awarded by traditional (research-

oriented) universities on completion of a postgraduate research-

oriented course of one to two years in duration. Professional

Master's degrees are awarded by different types of higher

education institutions that offer more professionally-oriented

programmes. Professional masters degrees are usually of shorter

duration than a research-oriented masters degree programme. The

duration of the programmes varies between 9 and 24 months.

The list of masters degree programmes can be found at the end of

this section on page 8.

Please note that this is a provisional list and that information is

subject to change. You must regularly check the Nuffic website for

the latest information: www.nuffic.nl/nfp.

2.1 EligibilityA candidate applying for an NFP fellowship for a masters degree

programme must:

be a mid-career professional with at least three years relevant

work experience;

be a national of, and working and living in one of the developing

countries on the NFP country list valid at the time of application

(see annex 4);

be nominated by his or her employer, who pledges to continue

paying the candidates salary and guarantees the candidate will

be able to return to the same or an equivalent position at the end

of the fellowship period2;

have been unconditionally admitted by a Dutch institution to one

of the masters degree programmes on the course list 2012-

2013. This means that the candidate must have met all the

requirements set by the Dutch institution (see 2.2);

not already have received an NFP masters degree fellowship;

not be employed by:

a multinational corporation (for instance Shell, Unilever etc.)

or

a large national and/-or commercial organisation or

a bilateral donor organisation (for instance USAID, DFID,

Danida, Sida, FinAid, AusAid, ADC, SwissAid etc.) or

multilateral donor organisation, (for instance a UN

organisation, the World Bank, the IMF, Asian Development

Bank, African Development Bank, IADB, etc.) or

international NGOs (for instance Oxfam, Plan, Care, etc.)

have completed and submitted an NFP masters degree

programme fellowship application including all the required

documentation before the applicable NFP fellowship application

deadline;

be employed in an area to which the study will make a relevant

contribution;

have a clear-cut, functional relationship with a relevant

organisation and be in a position to introduce the newly acquired

skills and knowledge into that organisation;

be available for the entire period of the programme and be

physically and mentally able to take part in the entire

programme;

endorse the objective and the aim of the NFP. The aim of the NFP

cannot be reached if the fellowship holder does not return to his

or her own country. Nuffic would like to urge fellowship holders

to return to their home country upon finishing the course or

programme to meet the NFP aim in the most effective way.

2.2 Fellowship application procedureAs stated above, to be eligible for an NFP fellowship, candidates

need to be admitted to the masters degree programme for which

they would like an NFP fellowship.

Please note that the fellowship application procedure has two

important types of deadlines:

1. the academic admission deadline;

2. the fellowship application deadline.

More information about these deadlines can be found below.

Obtaining academic admission to a masters degreeprogrammeCandidates first apply for admission directly to the Dutch institution

that offers the masters degree programme of their choice.

The Dutch institution assesses the application and decides

whether or not to admit the candidate to the programme.

Candidates will receive a letter from the institution informing them if

they have been admitted. Nuffic has no part in the admission

application process. A candidate applying for an NFP fellowship

must have been unconditionally admitted to a Dutch institution for

the course or programme for which the candidate applies for an

NFP fellowship. This means that the candidate must have met all

the academic and administrative requirements set by the Dutch

institution.

Candidates are strongly advised to apply as early as possible for

admission to the Dutch institution to allow these institutions

enough time to process all the applications for admission in time.

Academic admission deadlineThis indicates the latest date that the Dutch institution will accept

applications from candidates who also wish to apply for an NFP

fellowship.

The academic admission deadlines for admission to masters

degree programmes vary per programme and can change

throughout the year. For this reason, candidates are advised to

contact the Dutch institution directly for up-to-date information.

Occasionally, the Dutch institutions deadline for applying for

admission to a programme is later than the NFP deadline for

fellowship applications. Nevertheless, to be eligible for an NFP

2. Partial payment of salary may sometimes be allowed as an exception to the rule. It is up to the Netherlands embassy to decide if an agreement between the employer and the

candidate about partial continuation of payment of salary is acceptable. It should be noted, however, that the NFP allowance is considered to be a contribution towards the cost of

living for the fellowship holder. A fellowship holder can therefore be faced with additional expenses (for instance extra costs for housing). Fellowship holders are adviced to check

with the Dutch institution if this can be the case for them. The allowances are not sufficient to support family members, either in the home country or in the Netherlands.

fellowship, candidates need to be admitted to the masters degree

programme for which they would like an NFP fellowship at the time

of the NFP fellowship applications deadline. On the masters

degree programmes overview (section 2.4), the academic

admission deadline is listed for each entry.

Applying for an NFP fellowshipCandidates can only apply for a fellowship for one masters degree

programme per fellowship application deadline. Being admitted to

more than one programme with the same fellowship application

deadline means that candidates can only apply for a fellowship for

one of the short courses.

Applications have to be submitted through Scholarships Online

(SOL). Through SOL candidates can apply for fellowships online

and they can check the status of an application. Other parties such

as the Dutch institutions, the embassies and consulates will use

SOL to assess NFP fellowship applications.

SOL can be accessed through www.nuffic.nl/nfp. This page also

contains more instructions about applying online.

What does an NFP masters degree programme fellowshipapplication consist of? a completed online NFP fellowship application submitted via

SOL3;

an employers statement nominating the candidate for an NFP

fellowship;

a copy of a valid official identity document;

a Statement of Government Authority (if applicable4);

a motivation on why you want to pursue this masters degree

programme;

a motivation on the relevance for your organisation (how will

your organisation benefit from the masters degree programme

you wish to follow?);

a motivation on the relevance for your country (how will your

country benefit from the masters degree programme you wish

to follow?);

a plan of action (how will you put your new skills and knowledge

to work when you return to your employing organisation?)

www.nuffic.nl/nfp.

Fellowship application deadlineTwo deadlines have been introduced for submitting fellowship

applications for masters degree programmes. Fellowship

applications for masters degree programmes must be submitted

before the following fellowship application deadlines.

See section 2.41 November 2011 7 February 2011

1 February 2012 1 May 2012The deadlines for paper fellowship applications are always one month before

the online application deadline. The paper fellowship application deadlines are:

1 January 2012 and 1 April 2012.

Fellowship applications received after the fellowshipapplication deadline are not considered.

What happens after an application is submitted?The Dutch institution that offers the programme will indicate in

Scholarships Online if the candidate has been admitted. Each

application will be assessed against the eligibility criteria listed

above and, if formulated, against the country-specific priorities.

2.3 Selection procedureBoth the Dutch institution and the embassy or consulate will assess

the fellowship application. The Dutch institutions will focus on

academic qualities while the embassies and consulates will look at

the relevance of the application for the development of the

employing organisation or country. If applicable, the application

also needs to comply with country-specific priorities. These

assessments will lead to a selection.

Finally, Nuffic awards the grant covering part of the fellowship

holders costs, including the tuition fees, to the Dutch institution.

The Dutch institutions make the logistical arrangements and pay

each fellowship holder a monthly allowance for the duration of the

masters degree programme. They also administer the fellowships

and give guidance to the fellowship holders.

The selection procedure has a very strict time frame. Between 10 to

16 weeks after the fellowship application deadline candidates have

to respond to a availability request. Indicating availability means that

if selected the candidate is still available for an NFP fellowship. The

candidate needs to respond within 7 days after the request has been

sent.



3. Those with insufficient access to the internet can submit a paper application. Paper application forms can be downloaded from the Nuffic website. They must be sent directly to

Nuffic by post, including the required documents. Candidates must only apply for one fellowship per NFP sub-programme per fellowship application deadline. If a candidate

submits two or more applications for the same NFP sub-programme to which the same fellowship application deadline applies, Nuffic will process the application that was

submitted online or process the application that was received latest and destroy the excess application(s) without consideration.

4. A number of countries require a statement of the government before candidates can apply for an NFP fellowship. Please check with the Netherlands embassy if this applies to

your country. If a government statement is required but not submitted together with the fellowship application the application is considered not eligible.
