Would you like to deepen your knowledge and skills in an inspiring learning environment, together with like-minded professionals? The in-person courses and programmes offered by the UM Academy for Lifelong Development provide intensive, practice-oriented education at an academic level—delivered either in Maastricht or tailored to your organisation’s needs at a location of your choice. Ideal for professionals who thrive through direct interaction with lecturers and peers, and for employers seeking high-impact, personalised training for their teams.
Why choose an on-site course?
Learning on location offers structure, focus, and in-depth engagement. Stepping away from your day-to-day work environment allows you to fully concentrate on your personal and professional development. In-person sessions offer ample opportunity for interaction, networking, group assignments, and applying knowledge to real-world cases. Classroom-based learning often enhances motivation and makes learning more enjoyable.
Personal and practice-based education in Maastricht or incompany
UM Academy offers a wide range of on-site programmes in areas such as health, public policy, law, language, and leadership. Most courses take place in Maastricht, located in the south of the Netherlands, close to the Belgian border and within easy reach of Germany. For organisations, we also offer fully customised incompany training programmes—delivered at your location and tailored to the specific learning needs of your team or organisation.
The benefits of classroom learning at UM Academy
Learning on-site with UM Academy means high-quality education developed and delivered by experts from Maastricht University. Our programmes combine academic depth with practical relevance, ensuring immediate value for your work. You will learn alongside fellow professionals, build valuable networks, and receive expert guidance throughout. Courses lead to a certificate of participation or a (postgraduate) diploma.
