Regional Practical Supervisor

As a Regional Practical Supervisor, you guide mbo and hbo students during their work-study trajectories and ensure structure, continuity, and quality within the practical training. You take over a significant portion of the guidance and coordination tasks from practical supervisors within the teams, thereby relieving teams and providing students with better support in their development. You guide students in their learning process and support them in achieving their learning goals. In doing so, you help students make the connection between the theory from their studies and the daily practice within Kwintes. From an overarching and independent position, you monitor the progress of work-study trajectories and signal in a timely manner when students or teams get stuck. You conduct three progress meetings annually with the student and the educational institution and ensure that agreements, evaluations, and meeting reports are carefully recorded within our systems. Additionally, you actively contribute ideas on how we can further strengthen learning and development within Kwintes. Daily guidance on the work floor is assigned to the buddy within the team. You provide support and advice where necessary, serve as a first point of contact for questions regarding guidance, and monitor the quality and progress of the entire work-study trajectory. With this, you make an important contribution to a stable, safe, and professional learning environment for students. You work closely with other Regional Practical Supervisors within your region. Together, you form a new team that is fully in development. Every two weeks, you participate in a consultation with the Vocational Education Advisor of your region, in which you brainstorm about learning processes, discuss signals, and share bottlenecks. You perform this role alongside your function as a personal supervisor. On average, you spend 8 hours per week on the role of Regional Practical Supervisor within a 32-hour employment. Due to peak moments around exams, progress meetings, and graduation, the commitment may vary per period.

You will be working within the Gooi & Vechtstreek region, where the regional practical supervisors already fulfill a trusted and solid role. Much experience has been built up in the region in guiding and training students and employees. Together with committed colleagues, you contribute to a pleasant and stimulating learning environment, in which there is room for personal development, knowledge sharing, and further strengthening the quality of care.
