Location
The 24-hour sessions take place in an inspiring and green location around Amsterdam.
Time investment
The break-out lasts 24 hours (including a good night's sleep, of course). Please note: it is important to prepare in advance of the break-out so that you and your team can get the most out of these hours. You will receive this preparation two weeks before the break-out and it will take approximately 4 hours to complete.
Study load
28 hours
Language
This programme is offered in two languages (Dutch & English). The accompanying learning materials are also available in both languages.
