Teacher Internship
A unique opportunity for teachers to become interns, dedicating one day per week to immersing themselves in the operation of a quantum-related company. This experience will enable them to understand better the expectations for their students and the skillsets required to work at such a company. Simultaneously, companies will establish stronger connections with educational programs and potential future employees, all while benefiting from free expertise. If you are interested in offering or participating in a teacher internship, please get in touch with Inge Simon (i.simon@hva.nl).

Quantum Theme Semester
Embedded in the HvA Bachelor’s Applied Physics program, this thematic semester on Quantum Technology fosters interdisciplinary collaboration. Students team up with peers from diverse programs, like Biomedical Engineering and Electrical Engineering, to execute specialized projects. Initially, these projects, sourced from scientific institutes and businesses, will undergo fine-tuning and attentive mentoring.

High School Program HAVO (QTLC-A)
In partnership with TU Delft and Leiden University, we're designing a special school day for pre-university students, offering a deep dive into Quantum Technology. Whether hosted at HvA or local high schools, participants will explore Quantum's historical, practical, and societal layers, with opportunities for further study.

Quantum Vocational Training
Building quantum computers demands the expertise of vocational students. Our mission with AL-3 is to bridge universities, colleges, and vocational schools. The Leidse Instrumentmakers School (LiS) plays a pivotal role, using growth fund resources to nationally coordinate vocational education, focusing on qualification assessment and fostering institutional collaborations.
