The sessions support the central project and are evaluated in written form on the basis of case study questions.

You will learn the basics of a quality mindset with the aid of quality models and standards. You will also learn how these models and norms can be applied in practice to guarantee the sustainability, healthfulness and hospitality of a service. The sessions support the central project and are evaluated in written form on the basis of case study questions. 

Corporate Social Responsibility
Society is placing increasingly high demands on  organisations when it comes to their dealings with employees, customers and the environment. 
Companies and organisations take this into consideration by means of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). In so doing, the organisation takes the 3 Ps of CSR into account in all of its activities: People, Planet, Profit. Attention will be paid to the reasons for CSR, to CSR and the market and to CSR reports. The sessions support the central project and are evaluated in written form on the basis of case study questions.
