Is the Russian diploma of technical education (jeweler) recognized in Holland?
If recognized, then how and where to confirm it? How ( and where) then find a job with a confirmed diploma of jeweler?
If not recognized, then where in Holland can I get a similar education? (as a technical school in Russia)?
When should I take the exam in English or Dutch? Do I need an exam if a foreign diploma in the Netherlands is confirmed ???
Do I need to go to the Dutch language school?
No university, I want to work :)

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

Diploma requirements really fall into 2 categories; are they related to a regulated profession or not.  So if jeweller is a regulated profession in Holland then you need a diploma and that diploma needs to be recognised in the Netherlands.

To try and answer your other questions:

Diploma recognition - try NUFFIC - this link will take you there.

Jeweller training - no idea.  Google will be your friend here; link.

High School exams are all in Dutch; Higher-level education is also offered in English.

You need to learn Dutch.

Hope this helps.

No your diploma is not recognized and the right Dutch word for the job is Goudsmit. There is education, but it's in Dutch and the exam will be in Dutch.
