The aims of the pre-Master's programs are as follows: a. to enable students to acquire knowledge and skills, and ‘build a character’ in the field concerned; b. to provide students with academic training; c. to prepare students for a specified Master’s program. Al het onderwijs in de programma’s wordt jaarlijks schriftelijk geëvalueerd. Voor de cursusevaluatie wordt gebruik gemaakt van een gestandaardiseerd vragenformulier. Daarnaast zijn klankbordgroepen actief waarin evaluatiegegevens worden verzameld over de cursussen en curriculumonderdelen. Aan de hand van de uitgevoerde evaluaties worden zo nodig verbetertrajecten met de docenten, die de vakken verzorgen, afgesproken. All the courses in the programs are evaluated annually, in writing. For the course evaluation, a standardized questionnaire is used. In addition, sounding boards collect evaluation information about the courses and curriculum components. Based on the evaluations, agreements for improvements are made with the lecturers who provide the courses, if necessary.

Tot het afleggen van de tentamens van de vakken van het programma wordt in het academisch jaar waarin het vak wordt aangeboden in principe tweemaal de gelegenheid gegeven. Het voorgaande brengt niet met zich mee dat studenten tweemaal per academisch jaar recht hebben om een vak af te ronden indien zij een tentamengelegenheid missen. 2. De tentamens van de vakken uit de hbo pre-masterprogramma’s vinden plaats aansluitend aan de onderwijsperiode waarin de vakken zijn gegeven.

In principle, there are two opportunities to take the examinations for the program courses during the academic year in which the course is offered. The above does not mean that students are entitled to complete a course twice every academic year if they miss an examination opportunity. 2. The examinations for the courses in the HBO pre-Master’s programs are scheduled after the education period of these courses. This enables the completion of the HBO pre-Master’s program in one semester. The resits of the courses that are part of HBO pre-Master’s programs are scheduled directly after the examinations. 3. Notwithstanding paragraph 2, resits for courses of semester 1 that are part of an academic pre-Master’s program may be scheduled after the regular examinations of semester 2. 4.

Bij mondelinge toetsen en tentamens zijn minimaal twee examinatoren aanwezig. Van mondelinge toetsen en tentamens die door één examinator worden afgenomen worden geluidsopnames gemaakt ten behoeve van de inzagemogelijkheid, tenzij de desbetreffende student daartegen uitdrukkelijk bezwaar maakt. De geluidsopnames worden zes weken bewaard. 1. The Osiris Course Catalog states whether the examination or part thereof is taken in writing, orally, digitally, or by means of a proficiency test. 2. At the request of the student or the examiner, the Examination Board may decide to offer an examination in a different form for a particular student. 3. Oral tests are not conducted with more than one person at a time, unless the Examination Board has decided otherwise. 4.

Template EER – Oral, written and online examination 1. Motivation / Decision The examinations of the degree program are oral or written examinations (including online), as specified in the corresponding course description. If the Examining Board is of the opinion that for a specific examination extra measures are necessary to prevent fraud and identify the student, and thus ensure the lawfulness of the degree, it may advise the Dean to implement such measures. After consultation with the Dean, the Examining Board can decide that a written examination is held by means of online proctoring (online surveillance). An examination can only be proctored online if the course is a course with knowledge-oriented examinations and if the Examining Board is of the opinion that online proctoring is absolutely necessary to prevent fraud and identify the student, and thus to ensure the lawfulness of the degree. The Examining Board may elaborate further rules for the organization of online proctored examinations and lay these down in the provisions under or pursuant to the Rules and Guidelines. These further rules must comply with guidelines laid down by the Executive Board to ensure the quality and practical organization of online proctored examinations (Article 7.10 paragraph 3 WHW) and protect students' personal data (GDPR). In the case of an online oral examination or an online examination, the student is alone in the room if the room is surveilled on site by Tilburg University. The WHW does not stipulate to lay down further rules on (online) surveillance of oral or written exams in the EER. The Court of Amsterdam has confirmed this in its judgment of June 11, 2020 (UvA). This said, the Executive Board and the Examining Boards propose to lay down the possibility of online proctoring and the general norms concerned in the EER and R&G for the purpose of transparency.

In recognition of these concerns, the following measures have been taken: Technical conditions: students who lack the proper hardware and/or WiFi/G4 connectivity or a quiet working environment can send a notification to itsupport@tilburguniversity.edu on registration for an online examination, no later than 5 days before its scheduled date. IT Support will determine in consultation with these students whether – in keeping with the government measures and practicability considerations – a technical or practical solution can be realized that will enable these students to take the scheduled examination. In view of the restrictions referred to, options can be limited and a solution may not be feasible or not be attainable in time in all cases. Privacy-related objections to online proctored examinations: students who on registration for an online proctored examination, no later than 5 days before its scheduled date, declare through online.exams@tilburguniversity.edu that they have conscientious objections against taking proctored online examinations cannot be obliged to take such examinations in the upcoming exam period. In their declaration, they must specify their name and student number, the course code and course name, and the date and time of the examination concerned. For courses with examinations that can only be taken in a proctored online environment as a result of the government measures this may result in conscientious objectors incurring a delay in their studies. Special personal circumstances: students with (a) a serious functional limitation or (b) a very special home situation that makes it impossible for them to take online examinations are known to the Dean of Students.

This situation cannot be regarded as the special circumstance referred to in the context of the Profile Fund that the study program is insufficiently feasible.” “Institutions are not expected to provide additional grounds for entitlement to compensate students for study delays in their own policy. This is in view of the force majeure situation and the efforts they make to avoid disadvantages for students as much as possible." 42 Internal rules: Student Charter, Template Education and Examination Regulations (EEER), Template Rules and Guidelines of the Examining Board (R&G), Policy, other internal rules Motivation / Decision Participation rights?
