European Telework Week:

Events in The Netherlands

Telework Week Started Early in The Netherlands!

European Telework Week started early in The Netherlands. October 10 to be exact! Thats when Kitty de Bruin (ETW coordinator) helped in organising a special seminar oganised by the handicapped and titled Telewerk en Arbeid. Kitty reports: "We made a presentation for European Telework Week during the seminar, by giving the plans and activities to more than 180 attendees.

I have also managed to find sponsors to support the making of a video about this subject and I am actively looking for sponsors to make a short version of this movie, so we can present it at future seminars."

Please note: This video is available to organisers of other ETW events
