Education

As a school board or municipality, you are facing a wonderful challenge: the development of a new school building. A building that optimally supports quality education and feels like a home for students and teachers. It is a unique opportunity to create an environment that fully aligns with the school's vision and identity. A development that also gives a boost to the neighborhood, city, or town.

There are numerous ambitions for a school building. The indoor climate must be healthy, the property easy to maintain, energy costs low, the spaces multifunctional, and the materials sustainable and circular. All this while budgets are sometimes tight. A successful project therefore requires a smart organization of the process. A tailored approach, but without the high costs of bespoke work.

Embera's project managers work with schools and municipalities on educational housing. This allows us to perfectly empathize with the key partners. We bring everyone on board, select the right manager for the project, and organize the decision-making process.

A central approach to education

Since 2023, Embera has been involved in the Educational Housing Program (POHV) of InvestNL, Ruimte-OK, and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science. We lead the development of various products, such as the generic program of requirements, the Integrated Housing Plan blueprint, the renovation vs. new construction assessment framework, and the School Configurator. The standardization and sound design principles that result from this ensure quality, predictable schedules, and lower costs. We apply the products, insights, knowledge, and network we built at POHV to the development of your educational building.

"Malco gave me insight into the various roles and process steps. He was always very clear, made sure all parties were involved and kept a close eye on the interests of the client and end users. I could bring anything to him."
