Samenvatting

The labour market for experts through experience is growing. They work at client organizations and with increasing frequency at mental health care facilities and training institutes as well. This requires training and curricula for experts through experience. The author describes as an exemplary case the curricula developed for them at Fontys Professional University 'Socials Studies' and the positions which these courses qualify people for. He formulates the building blocks included in the curricula, as well as important moments within the process of building up expertise through experience. He focuses on the impact of this development on the courses of study for professionals and describes the desirability of further integration of this type of training into mainstream social work education
