“I found the ILLP a challenging programme that can be very useful for those who like to work within an organisation or who would like to make a difference in this world. I really enjoyed the opportunity to learn more about my personality and about how to use my competences to lead.” 


Carmen Echeverria (MA Law) 



“The programme was really awesome. You learn so much about yourself. Your qualities, your personality and more importantly, the areas in which you can improve to boost your leadership qualities. You are surrounded by ambitious, motivated and inspiring people from whom you learn so much throughout this programme. 

I think that every motivated and ambitious student who is willing to dedicate him/herself to this programme will benefit from it in the long term. I would recommend it to everyone!”

The International Bachelor in Psychology in Leiden has a very close connection to research. The teachers are experts in their fields of study. It’s interesting to learn from these people. You can ask questions and receive the best information.

"My motivation to follow this master programme was to expand my services as a consultant with cybersecurity expertise to support organisations in the healthcare sector. Cybersecurity requires a holistic approach in a complex and digital world. To me, this programme provided fundamental building blocks to further develop knowledge in the cybersecurity domain. Also, the programme boosted my personal skills and offers a valuable network of experts."
