More about us
TDP was founded at the same time as PPle, but have grown a lot in that short time…
The Talent Development Programme was created to accompany the PPLE programme as a way to help students cultivate other interests and skills outside the classroom. TDP is an initiative run by students, and supported by PPLE faculty, to organize events and workshops for students. These events have ranged from bike repair workshops, to talks held by the Dutch human rights ambassador, and even a workshop on how to present yourself in both job interviews and a Tinder profile. Our main focus is to work to organize events, workshops, and resources to help the PPLE student community develop themselves further, whether it be career-wise, engaging more with the PPLE community, or gaining practical skills applicable in everyday life or professionally. To give the Talent Development Programme a more firm structure, we have set up the Talent Development Programme Foundation.
Make sure to follow us on social media to stay in the loop about upcoming events and we’d love to hear from you if you have an idea for an event.
