In 2022 I wrote another column for MetroNieuws. This time about the STAP-budget. I didn't get to use the STAP-budget for a course for myself. But I profited from the STAP-budget, because a few people bought my Big Data ecourse with the STAP-budget. I don't know if the persons who bought the ecourse with STAP-budget read this column and afterwards bought my Big Data ecourse or another course. I know that writing and being present online helps my sales. Read the column 'Vervangt het STAP-budget studeren?' I wrote for MetroNieuws.
