As part of a new immigration policy, the Dutch government announced last November that it will require people establishing residence in the Netherlands to demonstrate proficiency in Dutch (¡°Het Inburgeringsexamen Nederlandse Taal¡±). Ordinate¡¯s and CINOP¡¯s new Dutch test will support that policy and will be administered in the Netherlands and at Dutch diplomatic posts around the world.
