A green environment is a vital condition. This is true both for the green space in our direct living and working environment as well as in the (agricultural) landscape, the water resources and the surrounding nature. Without it there is no oxygen, food or clean water; no room for recreation, relaxation or for recharging. In short a green environment is essential for the quality of life.
The Aeres Group wants to keep on paying attention to the green environment, the biodiversity in an ecological balance and enlarge the attention to these factors. For the present as well as for the future.

Broad and comprehensive education – focus on the student

  • Groenhorst's core business is post-secondary vocational training for full time and part time students and short courses (practice and theory) for professionals;
  • PTC+ offers short term practical training for professionals.

The Aeres Group institutions have branches located across the Netherlands. These independently operating units jointly provide a unique, comprehensive package of courses covering the entire agricultural production chain, the agribusiness sector and the management of green areas.

Aeres Group education programs have been developed along the principles of Competency-Based Education (CBE). Lecturers take various learning styles into account, encouraging and guiding students and trainees to optimally develop their competences, in line with the needs of the labour market. Education units are kept small, even at locations that have large numbers of students and trainees. Prior learning, both practical and academic is taken into account in defining individual study programs. Future employers, business and public sector, are close involved in the educational process, and ICT is used extensively.

In addition to their standard international programs and courses, all four Aeres Group institutes develop and conduct tailor-made training courses.
