Students organize event in Hoensbroek-Centrum

The municipality of Heerlen and Vista College have jointly launched the Events project. The students of Vista College who are following the event organization course are carrying out this project. This spring they are organizing an event in Hoensbroek-Centrum for the youth.

For the training, the school and the students regularly look for internships and practical experiences. The collaboration with the municipality makes it possible for students to participate in all components that are necessary for the organization of an event. For example, it concerns devising and describing a plan, coordination, applying for permits, safety, transportation and promotion.

Living room of Hoensbroek

Alderman Marco Peters of Restructuring:
“With this collaboration, we stimulate the collaboration between education, youth and entrepreneurs in the organization of positive and creative activities in Hoensbroek-Centrum. An important part of making Hoensbroek-Centrum the living room of Hoensbroek is more liveliness and dynamics. Organizing more activities and events fits in seamlessly with this. We are very curious about the ideas the students come up with!”.
