The University College for Sciences and Arts (Hogeschool voor Wetenschap & Kunst, W&K) supports e-learning through the LMS Toledo which also incorporates Blackboard and which is being used in the whole K.U.Leuven Association of which this HEI is a member.
The university college Hogeschool voor Wetenschap & Kunst (W&K) (in English "University College for Sciences and Arts") joins leading institutes for higher education in Flanders: De Nayer (Sint-Katelijne-Waver), Lemmens Institute (Leuven), Narafi (Brussels), Sint-Lucas Architecture (Brussels-Ghent) and Sint-Lucas Visual Arts (Ghent).
To show the diversity of the programmes and students, a small statement from the web site: The multidisciplinary character of the Hogeschool voor Wetenschap & Kunst is definitely an asset. Architects, musicians and engineers, cameramen and visual artists are complementary and work together.
This HEI also published its Erasmus University Charter 2007-2013 (PDF - EN).
The institution’s main office is in Brussels, Belgium. The campuses are spread across Flanders: in Brussels, Ghent, Leuven and Sint-Katelijne-Waver (Mechelen).
The University College for Sciences and Artsweb site is at http://www.wenk.be
Its own information on Toledo can be found on http://student.wenk.be/toledo.htm and the Toledo login page is here.
W&K is a member of the K.U.Leuven Association, which is also a case study on this wiki.
