Middle management course<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your child can follow an mbo level 4 course if they finished an mbo level 2 course or have at least a vmbo-kader diploma. Also, students with a promotion certificate from three to four havo or vwo meet the requirements for an mbo level 4 course. If your child does not meet these requirements, an admission test is an option. The course lasts three or four years.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"knop","knop":{"title":"Read about applying for an mbo course","url":"https:\/\/oudersenonderwijs.nl\/kennisbank\/mbo\/aanmelden-toelaten-mbo\/","target":""},"kleur":"primary"},{"acf_fc_layout":"extra_inhoud_blok","inhoud":"

Specialist course<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The specialist course is for students who want to study more in the same profession after getting the mbo-3 diploma. The specialist course usually lasts one more year.<\/p>\n

Content of the mbo level 4 course<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A level 4 course prepares your child to do work fully by themselves. Examples are jobs like branch manager and activities guide. It is also possible that your child continues studying at a university of applied sciences after this course.<\/p>\n

BOL or BBL<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your child follows a vocational training route (BOL)<\/a> or a work-based route (BBL)<\/a>. Not every mbo school offers both routes. Some have only a BOL or only a BBL course. When choosing, it is important to check how it is at your child’s mbo school.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"knop","knop":{"title":"Read about the difference between BOL and BBL","url":"https:\/\/oudersenonderwijs.nl\/kennisbank\/mbo\/verschil-bol-bbl\/","target":""},"kleur":"primary"},{"acf_fc_layout":"extra_inhoud_blok","inhoud":"

After the course<\/h3>\n

After finishing the mbo level 4 study, your child can start working. Many sectors are looking for workers with an mbo degree.
