Fontys ICT's ambition is:
“For anyone who wants to study ICT at a higher professional level, Fontys ICT offers a suitable solution for the optimal development and validation of talents”.
In order to be able to offer the very diverse group of students talent-oriented education, Student+ has been set up. Student+ provides advice and support for customised solutions, aimed at talent development. These are tools and training programmes that are offered Fontys-wide, as well as facilities that have been set up by Student+: such as the planning groups and the allocation of coaching pathways and study coaches with knowledge of autism, ADD and ADHD. Lecturers and students can also contact Student+ for advice.
The Fontys ICT has set up a Menu card with an overview of training courses, coaching and tools.
In addition, Student+ makes an inventory of obstacles in studyability and looks for solutions, such as.: workshops on energy management, motivation, feedback and planning. Student+ also provides training for lecturers and study coaches. Examples are a workshop on game addiction and the autism experience circuit.
In addition to Student+ the following Fontys-wide facilities are also available to students.:
For most training courses, a motivation letter from the student is expected.
Student+ also cooperates with student counsellors and psychologists. Referral to a student counsellor is necessary if the student needs extra facilities around tests, such as extra large font or extra test time. If a student needs extra study time to complete the propaedeutic phase, an appointment with the student counsellor is also necessary.
Via istudent you can make appointments with the student coach or the student psychologist. You can do so through the website, by telephone 08850-82222 and by e-mail istudent@fontys.nl.
A group of various study coaches offers intensive coaching to students. In order to qualify for this guidance, a student or study coach makes an appointment for an intake interview with Student+ via this button on the website, or by mail.
For certain topics we receive many requests for guidance, such as planning and organising your study. Since 2016, we have been organising the planning groups for this. A group of students engage weekly to get a better grip on their studies. Topics such as motivation, creating an overview and prioritising are covered. In addition, the programme is tailored to the students' needs. The way of working will mostly be in groups (peer consultation), with study coaches (who guide the process) or from Student+. Where necessary, we ask for the support of course lecturers. Students can easily apply via the apply button on the website.
