LLL (Lifelong Learning)
In the field of safety and digitalization, there are many new developments that require regular updating of knowledge and skills. The CVD's Lifelong Learning (LLO) program is developing a system of learning communities in which experts from businesses, social institutions, and knowledge partners collaborate. The catalysts in these learning communities are short courses that align with the daily practice of participating experts.
In close collaboration with the mentioned partners, the CVD develops and implements courses with data-driven organizations, safety regions and municipalities, and SMEs. Leadership in Digital Transformation courses are conducted in collaboration with Achmea, Kadaster, the Tax and Customs Administration, the National Police, Police Academy, and VNG. Alumni circles from these courses anchor the outcomes within their own organizations.
Learning Community
By collaborating within a learning community, companies can jointly explore innovative solutions and technologies to strengthen their cyber resilience. Step into a learning community and work together on digital security. Learn from each other's mistakes and successes, and ensure you're prepared for potential cyberattacks.

LLO Working Group
Our LLO working group, composed of collaborating experts from knowledge institutions, is developing LLO offerings. In discussions with companies and societal partners, the CVD identifies needs and organizes the development and implementation of courses, training, and workshops. To work successfully in an offering-oriented manner, we consistently engage with HRM and Learning & Development departments of organizations. Co-creation, collaboration, and leveraging each other's expertise are the norms.
Our strategic account managers, Mariska de Roo (CVD and UT) and Frouke Zieleman (CVD and Aventus), are the points of contact to assess needs and guide the collaboration with CVD towards effective LLO solutions.
For and with SMEs
A program is being developed for and with SMEs to enhance their cybersecurity resilience. The focus is on collaboration with networks and associations of SMEs, industry organizations, financiers and insurers, and specialized advisors. Collaborating with all CVD partners, the three Digital Workplaces, ROC Deltion, ROC van Twente, OostNL, Platform Veilig Ondernemen Oost Nederland, MKB Deventer, VNO-NCW Midden-Nederland, the Fraud Helpdesk, and with the support of the provinces Gelderland and Overijssel, EDIH East-Netherlands, CyberveiligNL, and all involved national expertise forums, we have developed the Katapult program consortium 'Digitalization SME wide and Cybersecurity' in recent months.
Collaboration agreement with regional police unit
A collaboration agreement has been signed with the East Netherlands Police Unit, focusing primarily on LLO activities, including further expanding the course developed by Saxion in collaboration with them and the course 'Basic Cybercrime and Security' offered by Aventus.

Collaboration agreements with HSD and other partners
Together with our strategic partner HSD and organizations such as dcypher, the Top Sector ICT, and the relevant ministries, we have developed collaboration agreements over the past years. In 2022, each of the involved ministries published policy papers and implementation agendas, all reflecting a shared concern about the urgent need to attract and develop significantly more talent in the field of cybersecurity.
In collaboration with HSD, we published the Human Capital Agenda Security (HCA). Based on this agenda, we are now working with our partners and ministries to develop concrete action plans focused on talent development and lifelong learning (LLO).
