Hi, I am Hetty van Roozendaal, director of the master programmes. I’ve been in education for 30 years and I like seeing students embark on new things.
At TiasNimbas we have some students with no working experience who are preparing to start their career and we also have young professionals with some working experience who want to begin a new career.
What I enjoy is the challenge of designing and executing a programme that allows people to grow, to live up to their potential. I think an education can make a difference.
An education is more than just the gaining of knowledge. A bad leader doesn’t go wrong for lack of knowledge, but for lack of personal leadership. I really think that we at TiasNimbas can make the difference.
We support you to develop not only as a professional but also as a person, to take the step in your career that fits you best, to find out what type of place and position suits you most. We want to support you in that process. We like being there for you - I like being there for you. I have daughters that are approximately your age and I’d want them to receive the same level of attention at their schools that we give our students. (That's one reason why I give students my personal mobile telephone number for emergencies.)
We have students from all over the world, all with different needs, hopes and wishes who come here for a very intensive year of study. We not only get to know each other during the year, but we often stay in touch after graduation. Not just because we offer that service, but also because we've become colleagues. (I still have contact with a lot of my former students for example via LinkedIn.)
All of these people, all of these adventures, all of these talks or coaching, and of course the final results of a degree and a career - to know that it's possible to make a difference in our students' lives, that is what I get up for in the morning.
