About Us

The Van Haren Group

Since 2001, when our company was founded, a number of organizations have benefited from leveraging the joint knowledge of best practices over the last decennia. This has prevented many organizations from having to reinvent the wheel.

We, at the Van Haren Group, believe that organizations can benefit from shared knowledge and experiences. And we try to help them to do so.

The environment which we are living in nowadays is changing continually. We can count on almost infinite ways of accessing information and communicating. That’s why it’s essential to make communication as straightforward as possible and to ensure information quality.

Standards and frameworks help ensure that we’re all speaking the same language.

Simply said, it minimizes the chance of error
due to unclear communication. It also provides professionals with
information that has captured years of experience by the best in
the industry.

We, at the Van Haren Group, are very well aware that just
applying these standards and frameworks will not lead to better
results. After all, people are the crucial factor because they are
working with and incorporating these standards and frameworks
into best practices.

The Van Haren Group hopes to give professionals and students
a head start in understanding and applying these best practices,
frameworks, methods, and standards in (future) jobs.

The Van Haren Group produces easily accessible publications,
high-quality learning solutions and certifications based on best
practices and standards developed by professionals and quality,
all assessed by our own team and many other experts.

This way you have access to information based on years of
experience from the best in the business. We are honored to work
with knowledge partners such as IPMA International and The
Open Group to support their best practices and standards. We
also actively and independently promote the best practices and
standards via many partners.

We understand that this mainly concerns knowledge and skills.
It’s not just about theory, we also realize that the human factor
is more important, because without people all these things won’t
evolve. Therefore, we at the Van Haren Group focus on
competence-based publications, based on skills and competences.
These are the subjects in which we will invest heavily in the
coming years, with and for you.

Enjoy your journey, team Van Haren,
