Time investment

The average time investment for the BDB is 160 hours, during which you will already be working on your portfolio during the meetings. There are fifteen meetings from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. In addition, thirteen interim meetings are planned from 9 to 12 a.m., during which you will process the themes offered, give and receive feedback and work on your portfolio. No trainer is present during these interim meetings; you will work in al learning team. In addition, there are hours that are not scheduled but that you need to compile your portfolio, process theory, develop evidence and reflect.
If the number of registrations for this programme is limited, the number of sessions of their duration will be adjusted.

Result

The programme concludes with an assessment in which the trainer and an independent examiner will evaluate whether the learning outcomes have been demonstrated.
