Fundaments doneert hardware aan IT-studenten van ROC van Twente

Imagine, if you were an IT student, getting to play with the other brands of hardware than the limited supply normally available at your college. That is exactly why Fundaments made the donation. Jeroen Tekelenburg, COO of Fundaments, says: ‘We want to ensure that tomorrow's IT professionals are ready for the challenges of the job market. By offering different brands, students learn about the existence of the ‘dialects’ of these brands. This way, they will soon be employable as IT professionals in any job that comes their way!’

Introduction to various types of hardware

In the current job market, there is a growing demand for well-trained IT professionals. To ensure that future IT professionals can develop to their full potential, it is important that they are already introduced to different brands and types of hardware during their education. This allows them to ensure broad employability after their education, making them a valuable asset to potential employers.

Jeroen adds: ‘At Fundaments, we are always thinking about the future and we want nothing more than to support the next generation of IT talent. That's why we were delighted to donate a batch of hardware to ROC of Twente. We hope the students enjoy it and that it helps them take their IT skills to the next level. Our slogan for a reason says: Go beyond. Be the best.’
