Students organize event in Hoensbroek-Centrum
The municipality of Heerlen and Vista College have jointly launched the Events project. Vista College students who are studying event organization are carrying out this project. This spring they will organize an event in Hoensbroek-Centrum for the youth.
For training, the school and students regularly seek internships and hands-on experiences. The cooperation with the municipality makes it possible for students to be involved in all the parts needed to organize an event. These include, for example, devising and describing a plan, coordination, permit applications, safety, transportation and promotion.
Living Room of Hoensbroek
Alderman Marco Peters of Restructuring:
"With this collaboration we stimulate the cooperation between education, young people and entrepreneurs in organizing positive and creative activities in Hoensbroek-Centrum. An important part of making Hoensbroek-Centrum the living room of Hoensbroek is more liveliness and dynamism. Organizing more activities and events fits in perfectly with this. We are very curious to see what ideas the students come up with!".
