Top entrepreneur Hans Schuurmans likes to pass on his entrepreneurial knowledge

Hans Schuurmans is an entrepreneur at heart. He is founder of online training provider SkillsTown and has already made several companies in various industries successful. With the training 'Successful entrepreneurship you can learn'. he likes to pass on his own knowledge and experience to start-ups and scale-ups.

Schuurmans started doing business at a young age. With a background in IT and education, it's not surprising that he and a business partner founded SkillsTown in 2016: an online training platform for professionals. "I have a love for IT and education, but I'm also a true entrepreneur. Entrepreneurship allows you to change things, to make a difference. For me personally, that opportunity is greatest by offering training. We've been around for about six years now and already 600,000 students use our online training courses every year. I'm quite a bit proud of that."

Learn-earn-return

Because he would like to pass on his own knowledge as a top entrepreneur, the course "Successful entrepreneurship can be learned" was developed. "I myself operate on the principle of learn-earn-return; the more you give, the more you get back. That's why I committed myself to this training." Schuurmans explains how this month-long blended training is completed. "In the first week you get to know yourself, what are your strengths and weaknesses? In the second block, we will explore your mission. Then in the third block you start working on the topic of successful negotiation, which you need in all kinds of areas. With suppliers, clients and employees."

Heisessie

The fourth and final part of the Successful Entrepreneurship course includes a live "healing session" with Schuurmans. "This is on location, but can also be done online if necessary; we want to give participants the choice in that. In this session you will be given tools and concepts that you can apply yourself. I will go through those with you so you can become more successful as an entrepreneur. Because I am convinced that anyone with the right drive and perseverance can make successful entrepreneurship possible." In addition to the information exchange with Schuurmans, in this block you will also share your knowledge and experience with other entrepreneurs.

"I myself follow the learn-earn-return principle; the more you give, the more you get back. That's why I committed myself to this course."
