How do you organize exams with hundreds of students in one room if you have to keep a distance of 1.5 meters? For a long time it was the exam question that no one could answer. But look: with a little creativity we transformed Flanders Expo in Ghent into the largest exam room in our country. 107,000 exams In recent weeks it was perhaps the most discussed theme in education: what about the exams? Auditoriums are large, but not that big either. How do you ensure that every student can still take their exams in June? With eight event halls and an empty event calendar, Flanders Expo turned out to be the lifesaver. “Until the end of June, we are organizing around 107,000 exams here,” says Katrien Verhoeven. “We do that in different shifts and in five different halls. And also in Antwerp Expo and Namur Expo we will soon receive thousands of students - and even candidate police officers - for their final exams. ” 8 kilometers of fences Few students consider the exam period to be an event, but production-wise it is still very close. “We have installed a total of about eight kilometers of nadar fences. In this way, we literally lead the daily influx of students into good jobs. The signage and communication plan has also been adjusted and will ensure that every student ends up at the correct disinfected table. ” To ensure that all that traffic runs smoothly, Flanders Expo converted Hall 1 - one of the largest halls in our country - into a so-called crowd control room. Here all students gather at a safe distance from each other and employees of the college and university send everyone to the correct hall.
