Summary
The appointment for the roles of Programme Manager and Cluster Managerr has its own procedure. After selection, actual suitability must be demonstrated for at least one year. Furthermore, this page describes the working conditions and the procedure for terminating these roles.

If the role of Cluster Manager (CM), or Programme Manager (CE) is vacant, the vacancy will be published within Fontys ICT and all colleagues will be given the opportunity to respond to it. In case of equal suitability, colleagues who have made agreements in the development interview about a development towards a more coordinating role are preferred.

The lecturer who, after selection, is considered to be assignable as CM or CE, must demonstrate for at least 1 year that he or she is actually suitable for this role. During this period, the lecturer is entrusted with all responsibilities and receives an allowance as if he or she had already been appointed.

In the event of proven suitability, to be assessed by the management, the lecturer is appointed in the role of CM or CE. Appointment is for a maximum of 4 years and can be extended once for a period of 4 years.

Update 8 January 2025. Due to Fontys' new allowance policy, the old terms and conditions of employment (lecturer 1 and personal allowance) no longer apply. The new text regarding promotion to lecturer 1 will be amended here. For more information, see Career progression policy.
