Basic Qualification Examination (BKE)

Welcome to the Basic Qualification Examination (BKE)
The Fontys BKE program prepares you for the BKE assessment. Over the course of four inspiring training days, you will actively work on gathering evidence for the four BKE learning outcomes, the assessment and vision of your institution, and the Fontys frameworks that support talent-oriented education (TGO). On the concluding assessment day, you will receive the evaluation. During this program, you will work on developing and improving your assessment literacy and contribute to the increasing the quality of the assessments within your institution.

Who is the BKE program intended for?
Are you a lecturer at scale 11 or higher with a position of more than 0.2 FTE? Then you must hold a BKE certificate by 2027. If you want to apply for an exemption, you can do so via the assessmentcommissie FDO.

Practical information

The BKE process is structured as follows:

Four training days or 8 half-days and one assessment day.
The Canvas consists of a module introduction BKE at Fontys. For each BKE learning outcome, there is a module with information and resources.
You have your evidence provided with feedback for learning and performance feedback in Canvas.
You submit the assessment portfolio to two examiners via Portflow snapshot 10 working days before the assessment day; an independent examiner and your BKE trainer.
In the decision-making process, you can read which criteria your portfolio must meet in order to be assessable.
On the assessment day, you may be invited for an interview by the examiners. Everyone will receive their assessment on the assessment day. The conversation and/or the feedback from the assessment may also take place online.
