SURF Onderwijsdagen 2025

To provide good education, you need the right tools: a learning environment, learning materials, tests and the right mix of all three. During the SURF Onderwijsdagen, you will discover how to use and combine these resources more effectively.

Discover these sessions within this theme:

• EdTech eenvoudig, innovatief en veilig inkopen
  The EdTech Marketplace session shows how you can use a dynamic purchasing system to procure EdTech more easily and lawfully, with an eye for public values and intellectual property.
• AI-geletterdheid: de student centraal
  AI literacy is receiving increasing attention in education, but existing frameworks are mainly focused on teachers. This workshop focuses on the student.

Students are increasingly taking control of their own learning and development paths and have more and more choices. Discover how flexibility is taking shape in policy and practice, and apply it directly within your institution.

Discover these sessions within this theme:

• Samen op weg naar drempelloos leren, ervaar de gereedheidsscan
  Where does your institution stand in terms of educational design, collaboration, systems and data? The readiness scan Learning without barriers is a starting point for further developing agile and barrier-free education.

• Demonstratie eduwallet
  Come and see how an “eduwallet” can be used in education to give learners control over their own education.

Your education cannot do without a solid digital foundation. How do you ensure that data is processed securely and independently, and how do you turn data into useful information? This theme revolves around digital architecture and collaboration without becoming dependent on Big Tech.

Discover these sessions within this theme:

• Hoe organiseer je slagkracht in digitalisering?

• Collaborative Trust Framework: samenwerken in partnerschap met behoud van soevereiniteit 
  A workshop on the Collaborative Trust Framework: what does this mean for regular procurement, co-creation, and further development within an existing relationship?

Sharing knowledge is the key to progress, including for you and your institution. In this theme, you will discover how to strengthen a learning culture and how CTLs, communities and evidence-informed working contribute to this. With inspiring examples from colleagues who bring together research, policy and practice.

Discover these sessions within this theme:

• Onderwijs vernieuwen met lef: het CTL als katalysator voor ontwikkeling
  An inspiring example from practice: what does it take to strengthen a learning culture?
• In the Lead: Connecting National Agendas with Local Action (ENG),
