Interested in obtaining a nursing degree ?
The HBOV offers a variety of training in Sint-Michiels Bruges, Bruges centre and Ostend.

Our students are a minimum of 18 years old: some have just left school and others already have  a lot of  work experience. The whole training is modular and spread over 3 years.

During the training you can specialize in general hospital care, elderly care, disabled people's care or psychiatric care. If you pass, you  will become a certificated graduate nurse. You will not only have the knowledge, you will also  have benefited from a lot of experience in the workplace.

We offer training for people who  have nursing experience and want to keep up-to-date. This takes place in our centre for in-service training VOVB.

We have special training to help immigrant or exchange students with the Dutch language.

Below are some opinions of students about our school:

"I'm a French-speaking, single mother with three children. Module 1 XL (care portal) gives me the unique chance to study nursing.
With all the support I get from the teachers I've already learned so much in so little time.
It's the chance of a lifetime to make my dream come true: to become a nurse"

"I hesitated for a long time before I took up studying but then I found the ideal possibility: module 1 XL (care portal).
The teachers at HBOV in coöperation with VDAB give us the time to combine our family life and our studies. In the afternoon there's time for every necessary support.
It all strengthens our confidence to qualify as a nurse!"
