The General Education Union (Dutch: Algemene Onderwijsbond, AOb) is a trade union representing teachers, lecturers and support staff in education, in the Netherlands.

The union was founded on 1 January 1997, when the General Union of Education Personnel merged with Dutch Association of Teachers. It affiliated to the Federation of Dutch Trade Unions. By 1998, it had 72,206 members,[1][2] and in 2008, this had grown slightly, to 77,943.[3]

At the start of 2020, the union absorbed Vawo, a union for university researchers.[4]
