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
Group size
The BREAKOUT can accommodate a maximum of 10 participants. You can register with a team of at least 2 and no more than 5 colleagues. Places are limited, so full = full.
Language
This programme is offered in two languages (Dutch & English). The accompanying learning materials are also available in both languages.
Costs (2026/2027)
If you are a VU employee - or employed by ACTA, Amsterdam UMC location VUmc or AUC -, most of this programme cost will be covered through internal quality funds. When participating in this programme, we charge a € 140 registration fee per person. We advise you to talk with your manager about a possible reimbursement of the registration fee. You can check on this page if you are eligible for reimbursement.
Registration
You can register using the online registration form. Important: you are required to register with your teaching team of at least two people, with whom you will work together on a single course or curriculum. When you register, we are counting on your attendance; we book the venue, hotel accommodation and catering specifically for you. In the event of a no-show, we will be obliged to charge the registration fee anyway.
Customisation
Are you interested in a customised programme? For example, because several courses from the same curriculum are being (re)designed simultaneously? Please feel free to contact Hilde Remmers at h.t.remmers@vu.nl.
