Hi! We are Paragin Group. Nice to meet you!

Jeroen Bakker
CEO, Paragin Group

β€œAt Paragin Group, we develop software that helps people grow. Knowledge, skills, and competencies are at the heart of everything we do. For many years, we have pursued this mission with enthusiasm, dedication, care, and reliability.

Knowledge, skills, and competencies are not abstract concepts; they are the foundations on which people build their futures. With our software, students learn and earn their diplomas, professionals can demonstrate their expertise to practice their profession, learners gain a boost of self-confidence, students worldwide can study, and competencies and skills become visible. Our software makes a real impact on the world, and we are proud of that.

But we never do this alone. Our software is only a tool. The real work is done by our customers and users, who put it into practice every day. We see our customers and users as partners, and we want them to see us the same way. We aim to understand what drives them, what concerns them, and what inspires them. This partnership is deep, based on trust, transparency, and genuine engagement.

Improvement is not a goal, it is an attitude. Every process, every product, every idea can be smarter, more efficient, and more beautiful. We challenge ourselves to keep learning, to keep refining, and to keep striving for excellence. We also welcome our partners to challenge us along the way.

Our customers deserve the very best from us. We go the extra mile to support their success. Their satisfaction and loyalty over the years are proof that we deliver on our promises.

We also enjoy working with other organizations in our ecosystem. From partners to government agencies and even competitors, together we can achieve more than we ever could alone. The world is big enough for all of us.

We operate with integrity. We value transparency and security. The information entrusted to us is protected with the greatest possible care. We act ethically, with respect for the public values that connect education and technology: inclusivity, sustainability, reliability, and responsibility.

Within our offices, we foster a safe and inspiring workplace where people enjoy working. Professional commitment, collegiality, and respect form the foundation of our daily actions. We celebrate successes together, and we see mistakes as opportunities to learn. Here, every voice can be heard, everyone can contribute, and everyone can grow.

We do not just build software, we contribute to education, personal development, growth, and trust. This is what we stand for, and this is what we work for. It is not only a noble mission, it is also a lot of fun to do.”
