Happy Christmas 2012
In 2012 the school successfully completed the second cycle of its Bachelor
IBA accreditation in 8 specialisations at the NVAO, and the programme was
also accredited by the German based FIBAA accreditation council. During
the past year, the validation process for the MSc programmes in
International Event Management and International Tourism Management
were completed and the Events MSc started with a small class in September.
2011 has been an exciting year, but also one tinged with sadness. - This year
we celebrated Wittenborg’s 25th Anniversary with a truly fantastic Gala
Evening; we also launched the Debbie (Memorial) Foundation which will
provide scholarships for deserving students.
All in all – a good year has passed, and Wittenborg University looks forward
to the challenges in 2013 with energy and drive!
On behalf of Wittenborg University of Applied Sciences, directors Peter
Birdsall and Maggie Feng of the Executive Board would like to wish you a
very Merry Christmas 2012 and a prosperous, successful and exciting 2013!
An Entrepreneurial Project Week
During the past week, Wittenborg Phase 1 and Phase 2 Bachelor students have been carrying out
the third project week of the year, this time with a clear focus on entrepreneurship and new
business development. One of the primary projects was designed by co-organisers “The Centre
for Young Entrepreneurs”, together with their partners Rabobank, Chamber of Commerce and
Startersplein who want to establish a forum for (starting) entrepreneurs in Apeldoorn. Through
this forum questions and problems of entrepreneurs will be categorized, clustered, and referred
to (preferred) providers, to be answered. The city of Apeldoorn also instigated a project entitled
“Apeldoorn: Students’ City 2015”, as did local consultancy company Cardies.nl, with their project
researching the impact of their so-called ”free marketing consults”.

The February Start - Bachelor, Pre-Master & English Prep all start in February!
Many programmes in the Netherlands offer students the opportunity to start their studies in
February. At Wittenborg, with its six starts per year in the Bachelor programme, the February start
is the second most important intake of the year, after September. Students who start in February
graduate in February, often leaving time for them to take a half year off before continuing with
their chosen Master programme. The English Preparation also allows entry at February, and
students can join the main Bachelor degree programme when they have completed their IELTS
test successfully.
For Master students needing preparation for their chosen MSc programme, a pre-Master is
offered that starts in February and runs through to the start of their chosen Master in Hospitality,
Events or in Tourism.
