What is SENSE, and what does SENSE do?

SENSE is a society for English-language professionals based in the Netherlands. We are a community of language workers who work from or into English, with a connection to the Netherlands.

Attend informal get-togethers

SENSE regularly hosts meetings (SIGs) for members based on region or special interest. These meetings can be in person or online.

Forum for members only

SENSE's web forum is where members can post questions, give answers, and chat with other members. There is also a jobs category where jobs are posted from potential clients who visited the SENSE website.

Get a mentor to guide you

SENSE has a mentoring programme whereby experienced SENSE members can help inexperienced members for a small fee (subsidized by SENSE).

Event calendar / agenda

Never miss an event! Discover upcoming webinars, workshops and social events on the SENSE Calender, or browse through the ones that you have missed.

Contact other members easily

SENSE members are encouraged to make contact with other members. That is what being in a society is all about. All SENSE members can search for or browse the list of current SENSE members.

Read our regular blog

SENSE members and guest authors post meeting reports and interesting articles on the SENSE Blog. It also represents an opportunity to budding copywriters to get their name on screen.

Guidelines for student texts

SENSE has prepared its own "Guidelines for Proofreading Student Texts" and a "Form to Confirm Proofreading Services". Download them free of charge.
