werkplaatsbijdrage_academie_minerva.jpg

In the workshops you will work with materials such as wood, metal, plastic, photo material, etc. In addition, you use equipment (camera, beamer, etc.) and personal protective equipment (safety goggles, apron, gloves, etc.).
The costs for these materials and resources are partially included in the tuition fees as far as scheduled classes as part of the curriculum of your programme.

The costs for working in a workshop during open walk-in hours are €15 per half-day or €25 per day, excluding material costs. With a day pass or half-day pass, you gain access to the workshops, including support and facilities. The consumption of small and large materials is extra. Fees are also charged for attending a technical course during open walk-in hours. If the costs accumulate quickly, students can make use of the Regulation Workshop Contribution, which provides a financial benefit.
