PREMIUM Finishers website

On this page we celebrate the achievements of our PREMIUM students 2021-2022

Dear PREMIUM students,

Congratulations on the completion of your PREMIUM projects and journeys, and thank you all for another great year of PREMIUM. It was a year in which we were very happy to be able to meet our students back on campus, a year that allowed for new and genuine connections, but also a year that required from each of us to find again some balance in life and the possibilities that all of a sudden are available again.

We want to thank you and applaud you for your flexibility, self management skills and creative problem solving. We hope all the valuable lessons you learned, the useful knowledge you gained, and all the skills you (further) developed, serve you well in all your future endeavors.

Kind regards,
PREMIUM Central Management Team

Honorable mentions

During the PREMIUM programme, students are required to attend a minimum of 6 workshops, aimed to further enhance their professional skill-set. However, we encourage students to attend more workshops if they want to go the famous “extra mile”.

Congratulations to the students that took a chance and decided to go the “extra mile” fully by participating in the most workshops and Pop-Up events.

On the podium, the big winner of this year: Puck Slaats (FHML) who attended a total of 12 workshops and 4 Pop-Up Events.

We also congratulate Laura Wallossek (FPN) who attended a total 10 workshops and 3 Pop-Up Events and Julia Greis (FPN), attending 10 workshops and 3 Pop-Up Events. Well done everyone, for choosing to fully commit to enhancing your set of skills and developing new ones!

PREMIUM team successes

The PREMIUM programme is yearly concluded with an official closing meeting between students and clients, during which each team presents their project outcomes to their client. Next to that, we celebrate the closing of the programme with a festive Closing event, aimed at community building, celebrating team successes and festively bringing PREMIUM to a close. By means of this page, we want to further highlight our students’ achievements.

Below, you can find an overview of each team’s progress by means of their Tumblr page, an impression of their PREMIUM journey, and we announce and celebrate the teams that win the Tumblr awards.
