Learning network facility management in schools
To answer to the need for more knowledge and support regarding facility management of schools, Odisee invest over the next two years in the learning network "Sustainable and professional facility management in schools". We do this on behalf of the Flemish Department of Education & Training, and as such contribute to sustainable learning environments. The network is open to all educational institutions in Flanders. Inspiring, discovering and activating are key and are embedded in a varied mix of thematic days, school visits, and workshops. Be part of our learning network and contribute to sustainable schools in Flanders.
