Teams

Educational Support and Innovation consists of three different teams, each with its own expertise. Below are the different teams, their staff, and information about how to get in touch with them.

Team Assessment Support

Team Assessment Support assists with the (digital) testing process. We do this by contributing to the development of testing, by providing support and advice to teachers, course coordinators, and educational staff about (digital) exams and testing formats. We also offer training with which we ensure that the testing process is further optimized.
