PIT investigates in the practice of our MBO education what works for students and what doesn't, and most importantly, why it does, in order to learn from it and make our products better.

Multidisciplinary innovation
They do the development work with the help of outside knowledge, mostly interns from Fontys ICT, but also from various ROCs (ROC Tilburg, KW1C, Sint Lucas), Fontys applied psychology, Fontys pedagogy and Tilburg University. Sometimes they also work with companies. There are opportunities there for the MindLabs partners to collaborate with them and develop into a Smart Education Lab, where external companies and other organizations can go with their challenges related to learning and training that require a solution. In this way, we are creating a center of expertise within MindLabs when it comes to applying interactive technologies as a form of work.

Opportunities for the MindLabs partners in the ecosystem
We are joining forces in MindLabs' Smart Education Lab. What PIT creates is also perfectly applicable or adaptable as training for workers in the context of lifelong development. It might be interesting for MindLabs partners to discover what they do and how you can contribute to it. They strongly invite MindLabs partners to connect with them and explore what we can do together to make learning more fun, efficient and effective. In doing so, we will then create the Smart Education Lab together.
