Workshops & Events education logistics

Senz Interim regularly organizes workshops and events where employees from different educational institutions come together to brainstorm about various current topics in the field of educational logistics.

About us

Flexibilization in secondary, higher and scientific education is a much-discussed topic.
Offering education that better suits different characteristics and needs of various target groups is not only necessary for retaining students at the educational institution, but the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science (OCW) has also expressed the need to make this change within the educational field. This will ensure a connection to the labor market and keep education in tune with digitalization and globalization of society.

In 2021, my involvement in education was reinvigorated when I was given the opportunity to join YourPlannerz as a Planning and Scheduling Consultant. As the name suggests, here I gained a lot of experience on the operational side of education logistics. 
As an educational planner, scheduler, application expert and functional administrator, I fulfilled assignments within a fairly standardized process, where in practice, varying from educational institution to educational institution, uniformity and deadlines seemed less set in stone. Where this created confusion for some, for me it created insight, clarity and opportunity. With this optimism, in my assignments I try to think along in process improvement and realize efficiency and optimization. Because there is always room for improvement, said the perfectionist. 
This encouraged me in 2024 to make the switch to Senz Interim, where I am also active on a tactical-strategic level. My passion lies in functional management, where I act as the linchpin in the educational logistics web: in addition to my operational involvement in the educational logistics process, I deal with long-term issues, such as developments in the educational field, IT optimization and its alignment with education. 
With my creative but critical eye, I try to answer educational logistics issues, on the one hand as a functional manager focused on IT, on the other hand as a consultant focused on people. I am motivated by new and unique challenges in which I can continue to develop myself as a consultant – I look forward to taking on that educational logistics challenge together with you.

All my working life I have been active in higher education in the Netherlands. Starting out as an educational advisor at a faculty of the Delft University of Technology, I focused more and more on education support processes. Initially on the study tracking process and also broadening my scope to MBO. Then I got to sink my teeth into the whole registration process by being involved in the development of Studielink from the beginning. After that I started doing more and more projects in the field of planning and scheduling. A very interesting area, involving a lot of information and people. 
In recent years mainly involved in new developments in education, namely flexibilization and lifelong development. I do this both within MBO as information advisor and within HBO as educational logistics advisor. It is interesting to convert a vision of the future to the supporting processes. In this whole process, a well-stocked educational catalog is important so that for both regular students and course participants it becomes clear what their choices are for putting together their own study route. More choices also means a different way of planning and scheduling, because ultimately, as an institution, you have to be able to live up to a student’s choices. This does require a different and new planning and scheduling process in which student demand is central. 
My strength lies primarily in analyzing and working through problems and processes. Problems are usually more complex than people think, but usually require simple solutions. Sometimes these are obvious, but often there is more to it than meets the eye. I like to think creatively in search of the right solutions and then implement them together with the customer.
