flexible/modular study Explanation: Hi Robert, I am interested in this myself and I have been reading up on flexstuderen. It definitely is a new study option that will be piloted in the Netherlands at UvA, UU and other universities in September 2017. But it appears to be a known, albeit recent, study option in the English speaking world. To me, it sounded a lot like contractonderwijs, but the LSVB has stated the following on the difference between the two: Wat is het verschil tussen een contractstudent en een flexstudent? Flexstuderen is bedoeld voor voltijdstudenten die een volledige (door de overheid bekostigde) voltijdsopleiding willen volgen in hun eigen tempo. De flexstudent volgt in eigen tempo uiteindelijk wel het hele reguliere voltijdsonderwijs, waarbij het onderwijsaanbod niet wordt aangepast. Als je niet de intentie hebt om een volledige voltijdsopleiding te gaan volgen en af te ronden, dan past het contractonderwijs beter bij je omdat je je daar kunt inschrijven voor slechts enkele vakken. Hope this helps! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 dagen (2017-07-03 23:03:17 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hi Robert, good to hear that you have already found the solution! The points don't matter much to me. The term just stood out for me in the Kudoz list because I had been reading about it and thought I could help you with it. It's totally fine with me if you indicate 'answer found elsewhere'. Example sentence(s):
