Expertise

Aeres offers consultancy services and implements projects in the fields of international food business, agricultural education and training, institutional development, and didactics and educational methodology. Our partners are from the private sector, governmental organizations, and not-for profit, non-governmental organizations.

Over the past decades Aeres has implemented a range of educational development projects, with emphasis on the following areas:

• Strengthening education and training through the introduction of student-centred didactical methods, including problem-based learning and competency-based education and training.
• Curriculum development and teacher training.
• Hands-on education and training for the development of practical skills and knowledge throughout the value chain.
• Entrepreneurship, business management and value chain management, including project management and business development.
• Education management and institutional development for education and training institutions.

Many agricultural companies are internationally active. As a result of that, most employees in the sector will sooner or later be in contact with people abroad. This can be working from the Netherlands or somewhere around the world. They sell or buy products or they engage in long term relationships, build businesses together. Aeres educates these professionals and is very aware of the international connections and the demands they put on those who work in the sector.

Aeres wants to contribute to finding answers for the world food problems. We do this primarily by educating people on food production or improving education in general. To do so we work together with a number of organisations in international projects.
