The practical examination consists of two parts. The first part consists of questions that everyone gets. These are questions about how things go in Netherlands. The second part consists of questions about Work or OGO . These two topics we call profiles. Participants get on school lesson in one of these profiles.
Knowledge of Dutch society (KNS)

These topics are: work and income, manners values and standards, living, health and healthcare, history and geography, bodies, State establishment and the rule of law, education and upbringing.

- Creating a portfolio collecting evidence and a panel conversation = 20.
- Assessments = 4 keys.
- Combination portfolio and practice proofs and keys = 10 2 assessments.
If the participant has passed all the parts he gets the integration degree.
Portfolio profile work and OGO
The profile work is focused on workers and jobseekers and outflow has three directions:
- Technique;
- Care and welfare;
- Trade and services.
The profile OGO stands for Education Health and education and is consistent with educators of children.
The municipality determined on the basis of data and an intake interview or the participant must follow the profile work or OGO.
There are now also introduced two new profiles, namely social orientation and entrepreneurship. The NPC in hoogezand gives no lesson in these profiles, these two profiles will therefore not be explained.
Assessments
The assessments include practice situations in which the inburgeringsplichtige must show that he can perform certain language acts. The assessments are, as it were, imitations of reality: there is one situation in which re-enacted might occur in everyday life, also called a roleplaying game called.
The key is constructed in such a way that the candidate by performing a series of acts comes to a solution of the situation which is outlined in the toetsboekje. It appealed to both oral (interviews) as written (reading and writing) skills. In the toetsboekje the situation is described and the tasks that the applicant must carry out.
Panel Discussion
Before the panel discussion takes place, make a designated exam setting the portfolio on completeness. The control is not focused on language level.
The participant must submit a portfolio that contains at least 20 proofs of exported conversation – and write situations within the different critical practice situations as described in the manual portfolio. If the portfolio is approved then the participant may participate in the panel discussion. During the panel discussion the examiner may decide which prove to be queried.
In the panel discussion is the oral and written language skills assessed in the functional context of the portfolio securities. The panel discussion will evaluate the language skills of the applicant within the domains citizenship, OGO or work. Are there critical practice situations described for each domain.
• Citizenship:
The panel discussion for citizenship is based on evidence from the portfolio of situations within the Dutch society. Some examples of situations that can appear here are: the passing of changes in personal data at the municipality, opening a bank account, enroll in a training, a conversation in a chat with the Housing Association, neighbors, etc.
• OGO:
The panel discussion for OGO is aimed at participants who have collected evidence within situations related to Education, health and education. Here are some examples that may occur: a conversation at school, a conversation with the family doctor, de-register register with an association, etc.
• Work:
The panel discussion for work is aimed at participants who have collected evidence for work. The domain work is divided into ' General ' and ' work ' specific work.
The situations that fall under general work, are situations where anyone who works with it may have to do. The situations that fall specifically under work are focused on three specific sectors, namely technique, care and welfare and trade and services.
