True nomads learn anywhere and build on what they have learned, wherever they go. Maybe we are technically nomads, but we are also a bit “mad”, so crazy. We give our students a key and say: “This is your building, creating your own learning environment.”That is not at the university with tens of thousands of students, of course.

The school’s founder Pieter Spinder explains: “We have created a safe place where people can be themselves and, as a result feel freer. For us, this is an essential departure point. As a matter of fact, we don’t want to change the people when they arrive at Knowmads. We just see them for who they are. This is why we have designed an environment like the one children are in when they learn to walk. Usually they are surrounded by things that encourage them to do so. They get plenty of support and a suitable place is put together for them so that they can learn to move onward to the following stages of their lives. That’s why we say “Welcome Home” to them.

This is also one of the foundations of the Peoplerise approach: “If we’re talking about numbers then we can’t be talking about people”.
