About the platform
Pazurn is a small educational project focused on the practical foundations of digital work. It is operated by Kiper B.V., registered in the Netherlands, and serves learners across Canada online.
Origin
Many people enter professional roles with access to powerful workplace systems and little guidance on how those systems should be used together. Training often jumps to advanced features of a single product, or to soft-skills workshops that never touch a folder structure, a meeting note, or a table of figures. The gap shows up later as duplicated files, meetings without decisions, and reports that cannot be checked.
Pazurn was started from that observation. The founders had spent years supporting internal training and adult digital-skills programmes, and kept seeing the same practical failures: tools adopted without method, collaboration reduced to more meetings, and data shared without anyone asking what the numbers meant. The decision was made to organise those observations into self-contained programmes that could be used independently, at the learner’s own pace, with diagnostic checklists instead of motivational language.
Guiding principles
- Practice before display — the focus remains on process and observation
- Diagnosis over judgement — specific, correctable issues rather than general praise or criticism
- Tools as methods — understanding how shared systems are organised, not which brand to buy
- Honest scope — foundational skill, not career guarantees or management training
- Self-directed access — materials remain available for repeated use after enrolment
The team
Content is developed by a small group with practical experience in adult digital-skills instruction, information management, and learning design.
Eva van den Berg
Programme lead
Eva designs the overall sequence of programmes. She previously taught adult digital-skills courses in the Netherlands and spent several years supporting internal training in a public-sector organisation. She keeps the material practical and free of career promises.
Pieter de Vries
Workplace tools
Pieter develops the modules on shared workspaces, document versions, and everyday platform habits. His background is in information management rather than software sales; the emphasis is on how people actually use tools.
Anouk Smit
Collaboration practice
Anouk writes the remote-collaboration scenarios and meeting exercises. She has facilitated distributed project work across European and Canadian time zones and treats written records as a craft, not an afterthought.
Bram Hendriks
Digital information
Bram looks after the data-handling and spreadsheet practice. He comes from an operations-analysis background and is particularly interested in how ordinary tables go wrong, and how a careful reader notices.
Lotte Jansen
Learning design
Lotte shapes the exercises, checklists, and pacing. She works so that each unit has a concrete task a learner can finish in a single sitting and then assess against published criteria.
