Building meaningful & future-proof educational programmes together.
Developing impactful education calls for focus, clarity, and well‑considered choices. Whether you are shaping a single course, a learning pathway, or an entire programme, consulting an educational specialist can offer meaningful support.
The curriculum development working group of the VU Centre for Teaching & Learning supports individual lecturers and programme teams in designing, revising, and strengthening their teaching. We bring together expertise in curriculum design, assessment, change management, didactics, educational leadership, and team development. This enables us to support you at every level; from shaping a single course to designing or further developing a full programme.
Whatever your question may be: creating a new programme, redesigning a learning trajectory, or refining existing components - we are happy to contribute to every step forward in quality, with a keen eye for current challenges and the ambitions of your programme.
Innovative, responsible, and connected
Our approach is rooted in the VU Educational Vision. We believe in educational programmes that encourage students to develop into socially engaged citizens, with A Broader Mind. Our approach is based on:
- Innovation and challenging: we dare to think outside the box.
- Evidence-informed: our recommendations are based on current insights from scientific research and reliable data.
- Collaboration: quality does not stand alone and cannot be achieved in isolation, but only through close collaboration with the programmes themselves.
Our programmes: open and tailored
