Cross-over Qualifications 2020

A cross-over qualification consists of parts of existing qualifications. As an experiment, a school, together with the business community, can compose such a qualification, which is at the intersection of sectors. As a result, current and innovative developments quickly become a place in education. The crossover may only be offered by the school that applied for it. The OCW Ministry’s experiment will last until 2025.

The conditions for a cross-over are:
— only for mbo levels 2 to 4
— the training does not yet exist
— a school may offer up to ten experimental training courses
