Frequently Asked Questions

We distinguish two types of partnerships: Partner in Education (focus on the first two years of full-time study) and Partner in Innovation (focus on the last two years of full-time study). As a Partner in Innovation, you become a member of SPARC, see membership model here.

Partnership costs depend on the type of partnership you choose. Please refer to the overview (PDF)

Presenting and supervising projects is the core of the partnership. The assignments run over a semester (18 weeks), in which you, as a partner, actively participate in the team and invest an average of half a day per week. We recommend being involved in the partnership as a duo within the company to share the time commitment.

In some cases, it is nice to be physically present on site, for instance at the start of a project. We aim for as many contact moments at school as possible, but online contact is of course also possible. Thanks to our hybrid teaching methods, students may also visit companies. This depends, among other things, on the students' year of study.

Internships and graduations fall outside partnerships students seek assignments themselves. Of course, the partnership can help get in students' minds.

No, IT knowledge isn’t required. Instead, we are looking for people with knowledge of the domain to apply IT.
