Flexible education organisation
Students expect convenience and freedom of choice, to study what they want, in their own time, place and pace. As long as they study, but also in lifelong development. Institutions should offer flexibility where students ask for it, for instance making the education offer more flexible, facilitating student mobility and issuing digital certificates.
At Rotterdam University, students get credits for the knowledge they acquire, but how do you reward skills properly? The university uses edubadges to offer differentiation in this respect, so that students acquire skills at the level that suits them and they can make these visible on their CVs.
Case study
Students taking courses at another school or guest lecturers who need temporary access to systems: flexible education requires a smart and future-proof digital infrastructure. At Aventus vocational college, work on this is already well underway. IT architect Paul de Wit explains the key role played by eduID.
