Preface of the Director of the Academy Public Management, Safety and Law
Esteemed guests, dear students, On behalf of the Academy Public Management, Safety and Law, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all of our guests here at the Employment Network Event 2013. This network Event is organized by the International Bachelor of Law Program. Our innovative program, based in this beautiful city of Peace and Justice The Hague, is an ambitious and growing Program within the Academy. The Employment Network Event is an expression of exactly this ambition. The Employment Network Event was organized for the first time in 2012. It serves as a means to acquaint the students with potential employers for their internship and beyond. Moreover, it aims to acquaint employers to the International Bachelor of Law Program and its motivated students, as well as cementing relationships between the Program and the work field. Both the Program and I are very pleased to see that this year the Network Employer Event has grown and matured into an event that we can be proud of, given the enthusiasm and level of participation of all concerned. I would especially like to express our appreciation for the key note speakers who have volunteered to share their knowledge and experience with our students, as well as the many esteemed employers which are represented here today. Your valued presence forms the crucial link between the program and the employer market. As an Academy and a Program, we are dedicated to educate the students in such a way that they can enter into your organization with the competences and skills that your require and expect. You are heartily invited to meet our students and see for yourself. The program for today includes an introduction to The Hague University and the International Bachelor of Law Program by Program Manager Mr Ernst E. van Bemmelen van Gent, key note speeches of Ms Marietje Schaake and Mr. Pieter Duisenberg and contributions from alumni. Last but not least, we invite you to participate in a meet and greet between employers and students on an individual basis. Lastly, I would like to thank Mr David den Dunnen and Mr Aurelien Lorange of the External Relations Committee as well as the student ambassadors for their enormous efforts in making this event a reality. I wish all of our guests a successful and enjoyable day!
