All PAOTM teachers work and think at the intersection of theory and practice. This means that they are both expert and innovator. Our teachers are specialists who want to pass on their state of the art expertise to the course participants. They come from both science and businesses. Our teachers want to contribute to the spreading of state of the art academic knowledge by teaching postgraduate courses.
“Learning is the most fun and also what you learn stays with you best when you go into the field and experience your study system with all your senses.”
“Bij het dagelijks werk voor onze afdeling ‘Advanced Glass Engineering Service’ adviseer ik voor de meest complexe situaties waarbij glas een rol kan spelen. […] De diepere achtergronden van glass calculations are very important to create a safe glass construction. I am happy to pass on this knowledge.”
“Construction can be better! People are the critical success factor, especially with the introduction of the Construction Quality Assurance Act (Wkb). By consciously dealing with risks and giving quality a conscious place, the chance of success increases: the customer is more satisfied, you have less hassle and a more enjoyable process. Practically supervising such processes and training participants who want to get started with this is what makes me enthusiastic!”
“Especially in these times, knowledge sharing is essential about wood as an environmentally friendly building material and its behavior in application.”
“If we want to realize our sustainability ambitions, it is crucial that we not only increase our own knowledge, but are also prepared to share our knowledge and experiences. If we succeed in this, an accumulation of knowledge will be created, allowing us to achieve better end results faster. As a PAO teacher, I am happy to contribute to this together with my students.”
“I enjoy talking about my profession. The real estate sector is constantly evolving and subject to change. Students often bring diverse backgrounds and perspectives, which can lead to fascinating conversations and the sharing of different insights.”
“When designing systems with electronics, it is essential that the various building blocks do not influence each other. I have spent most of my career building basic electromagnetic awareness among employees who design, test and assemble electronic modules. For this target group, 'hands-on' instruction through experiments with simple tools is more important than theory. In this way within a large organization there are only a number of EMC“When designing systems with electronics, it is essential that the various building blocks do not influence each other. I have spent most of my career building basic electromagnetic awareness among employees who design, test and assemble electronic modules. For this target group, 'hands-on' instruction through experiments with simple tools is more important than theory. Because of this, within a large organization, only a limited number of EMC specialists are needed.”
