    In our mission, we state as Van Hall Larenstein that we aim to train professionals who contribute to a sustainable and better world. We wish to accomplish this by cooperating pleasantly and productively and with our network partners. Van Hall Larenstein is a university of applied sciences. We train our students to become high-quality, ambitious, and innovative professionals who contribute to a more sustainable world. As a university of applied sciences, we conduct high-quality practice-based research, enhancing our teaching and our position as a research institute. As a research institute, we supply practice-based solutions for issues from national and international business and society. Alongside regular higher vocational study programs, we also provide master programs, postgraduate higher vocational training programs, and regional, national, and international students.

    VHL University of Applied Sciences delivers applied research, which is significant for our teaching and our environment. We will achieve this by, Acquiring orders from business, government, and civil society organizations with a turnover in 2017 worth at least 15% of the VHL total, Developing qualitative and quantitative indicators and defining them in terms of targets for the quality of research and the significance of the research for our teaching, stakeholders and customers. The indicators we have in mind relate to students' degree of participation in research projects, the creation of exposure for the profile, and customer satisfaction.

    To realize its vision, Van Hall Larenstein makes accurate choices regarding external profiling, and we define a clear selection for regional, national, and international future students and professionals. At the end of this planning period, we wish to realize several main strategic objectives. To achieve this, we operate in the following fields:

    • Education: all our study programs will have three AISHE stars at the end of the plan period. Among other things, this means that our sustainable development vision will be visible in our teaching and that expertise in sustainable development will be present right across the study program
    • Operational management: by sustainably structuring our operational management, we will qualify for the Corporate Social Responsibility quality mark in combination with our study programs. The aim is to achieve 'entry' level in 2014 and 'certified' in 2017
    • Regional development: by 2017 at the latest, we will acquire the BREEAM sustainable regional development certificate for our locations in Velp and Leeuwarden, where our buildings are located
    • By the end of the plan period, we will opt for the NVAO's (Accreditation Organisation of the Netherlands and Flanders) special 'sustainable education' quality mark for the individual study programs and VHL whole.

    Van Hall Larenstein wants to be a personal institute where students are satisfied with their education. The strategic objectives of our education are:

    • to improve the quality of the study programs, as shown by the rankings. We want:
    • VHL as an institution to be in the Top 5 in the Dutch Guide to Higher Vocational Education (Keuzegids HBO)
    • VHL to achieve an average institutional score of 3.8 in the National Student Survey (NSE)
    • at least 4500 students by the end of the plan period.

    Van Hall Larenstein is an international university of applied sciences with a focus on sustainability. As a knowledge institute, we combine education, delivered by passionate experts, and applied research within the various professorships. We train our students to become high-quality, ambitious, and innovative professionals who contribute to a more sustainable world.
