The Academy of Understanding in Education

 

The Academy of Understanding offers programs for Vocational and Higher Education, all aimed at developing the art of living and skills that help you as a global citizen. They are included in curricula or offered as honors programs, after we have trained teachers and coaches in them. We work for Avans University of Applied Sciences, Utrecht University of Applied Sciences, Zuyd University of Applied Sciences, Arnhem and Nijmegen University of Applied Sciences and Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, among others. Recently we have added some international partners.

Our programs

 

An important aspect of all the programs we have developed in recent years is the high degree of responsibility and ownership that students are assigned from start to finish and their proven effectiveness.​

 

All challenges presented to students are about life questions that affect them and skills that they find really relevant in all kinds of areas. The space they are given to explore this together and thus inspire each other and learn from each other becomes learning to play and playing life.

 

The programs available to (international) students are the Code of Understanding, the Circles of Understanding and the Walk to Understanding. Recently we added a new program called the Global Hearts Club!
