CODAM DURING COVID-19

Latest update: 2020-10-22

The health and safety of our students is our biggest priority. We are constantly monitoring government guidelines and adapting to them. Based on the latest guidelines our school is only accessible to a small number of students per day to be able to uphold our Health & Safety measures. Please find answers to frequently asked questions below about the current situation. If your question is not answered, please reach out to us via contact@codam.nl.

Changes can always occur as we will adapt when necessary. Keep an eye on this FAQ or on our social media, where we will share new information!

Can I still apply to Codam?
Yes, absolutely. A part of your application process has always been online. Being at home right now might be a good moment to do the online test considering it takes 2 hours and 10 minutes in total. We encourage you to start the online test, and enroll in a check-in right away!

Are you still organizing check-ins?
Yes, we do! For now, however, we have no on-site check-ins at Codam considering the safety measures announced by the government. We are however organizing online check-ins. Whenever you pass the test the available spots for a check-in will become visible on apply.codam.nl. From there on you can book a spot. All the necessary information on how to attend such a meeting will be sent your way after booking.

What does this mean for Codam students?
With the latest rules and guidelines from the government, Codam has restructured the entire building and together with the cleaning team is keeping our facilities safe. Codam is entirely built on an educational model that is best lived in the facility we built for them. To keep in line with these Health & Safety measures and give students the possibility to continue their students in the best way possible, our team decided the following:

• Each student has one specific day per week where they are allowed to study at the building. This way we keep the number of students in our facilities low and the number of interactions between different groups limited.
• Evaluations between students one on one can be done in the building on their specific day. There are evaluation spots that are designed to keep the 1.5-meter distance.
• Outside of the building, the students are continuing their curriculum online. Every student has a laptop or other means to work on, in case this was an issue, they have contacted Codam for a solution.
• An online system is created to do evaluations outside of the building. This system is also used in group projects, to further limit interactions.
• We require students and any on-site staff to wear a facemask while moving around in the building. The face-mask can only be taken off when sitting behind a computer working.
