Introduction

The Sustainable Talent Development research group investigates what changing ways of working, learning and living mean for education and for innovative training in a networked society.

About the research group

Our projects span sectors ranging from healthcare to retail and from education to the business world. The way people work, learn, and live together is changing rapidly. As a result of digitization, automation, and globalization, the value propositions of companies and organizations are shifting.

This also applies to the aspirations and motivations of highly educated individuals themselves. With an open, educational perspective, we work from one key goal: optimal development for every student and professional.

Learning and developing: from the first day of the programme up to the time of leaving the professional practice. That's what I want for every professional.

Within our research group, researchers, lecturer-researchers and students work closely with practice partners to conduct research. Together they are committed to translating the results of the research -knowledge and insights- into the practice of education and the region.
