Continuing Education Teacher Award
Celebrate the first CE Teacher Award with us
On 18 June 2026, WUR will present the very first Continuing Education Teacher Award during Summervibes, recognising teachers and teams who make professional education impactful.
About the award
Continuing Education helps WUR translate scientific knowledge into practice through courses, programmes and learning experiences for professionals. These programmes are made possible by teachers, researchers and course teams who share their expertise, connect with the field and create education that is relevant, inspiring and impactful.
With the CE Teacher Award, Wageningen Academy recognises WUR teachers and teams who have made an outstanding contribution to Continuing Education. The first edition marks a special moment to celebrate their effort, creativity and commitment, and to highlight the role of professional education in strengthening WUR’s societal impact.
