Renew your ADN certificate with confidence

ADN Refresher 

An ADN specialist must renew the validity of their ADN certification every 5 years. This is done by completing a refresher course and exam. We offer this as a 3-day refresher course. During this course, knowledge and application of the regulations are refreshed, and changes and current topics are addressed.

ADN Course Refresher 

Knowledge and use of the regulations are updated, with extensive attention to legislative changes and current issues. The 3-day refresher course is delivered at a reasonably steady pace, allowing ample time for review, participant questions, practice exams, and clarification of more complex topics.

To successfully pass the refresher exam (taken at the end of day 3), we strongly recommend sufficient preparation in advance. Our online learning platform can support this preparation, offering instructional videos on ADN, an exam trainer, legislation, and our course manual.

On the final course day, the exam will take place at 14:30 at our location in Barendrecht.

When enrolling in the ADN Refresher course, you will receive the ADN legislation set 2025–2026 on loan. These books can be used during the exam but must be returned after the course. Throughout the entire course, a valid ID is required for identification. Without valid identification, participation is not possible.
