Netherlands IT Training Market Trends:

Increased Emphasis on Training in AI and Data Analytics

As digital transformation intensifies across industries in the Netherlands, there is a strong demand for training in artificial intelligence (AI) and data analytics. Industry reports state that the Netherlands achieved the sixth rank in the EU in using AI in 2024, with 22.7% of enterprises utilizing at least one AI technology. Natural language generation and text mining were the most common AI technologies used by these companies. Additionally, companies are incorporating AI capabilities into their businesses, ranging from automating customer support to supporting data-driven decision-making. As a result, demand for experts who can handle machine learning models, data visualization tools, and statistical programming languages has increased. IT training companies are reacting by creating customized courses in AI model building, data engineering, and business intelligence platforms. Within companies, training initiatives are being incorporated into workforce development plans to drive in-house innovation. Schools and universities are also increasing AI-driven curricula, often in cooperation with industry participants, to align with real-world business requirements. This increased interest is seen not only in large companies; small and medium-sized enterprises are also embracing AI education tools and looking for low-cost training options to remain competitive. This, therefore, is positively impacting the Netherlands IT training market growth. Moreover, the rising institutionalization of AI training also mirrors its importance in defining the future of the Dutch digital economy.

Focus on Cybersecurity Skill Development

Cybersecurity has emerged as a key part of IT training in the Netherlands, spurred by the changing threat environment and regulatory requirements. As companies extend their online presence, the incidence and sophistication of cyber threats have increased, leading companies to focus on employee training for cybersecurity best practices. According to industry reports, in 2024, out of every five companies in the Netherlands, one had problems due to cyberattacks. Apart from this, courses in network security, ethical hacking, incident response, and cloud-based threat mitigation are especially in demand. Furthermore, the widespread shift towards hybrid models of work has further increased the vulnerability surface, and therefore, cybersecurity awareness is crucial at all levels within an organization. As a result, IT training programs now feature role-based modules for both technical and non-technical workers so that there is a well-penetrated understanding of cyber hygiene. Collaboration between government and industry has resulted in efforts to assist upskilling within this area, particularly for public sector organizations and critical infrastructure. This increased emphasis on cybersecurity training is transforming IT training delivery, with a push towards scenario-based learning, globally recognized certifications, and simulated attack-response training that helps develop resilience among Dutch companies.
