Joke Vrijders has been a language-in-education policy officer since 2006. She works at Artevelde University College at the Office for Study and Career Guidance.

She trains lecturers in diverse study programmes and guides students towards academic success by focussing on their language proficiency. On an institutional level, she is involved in the development and execution of strategies, the design and implementation of new educational tools for language screening, remedial teaching and continuous professional development.

Joke is one of the founders of a Flemish Network on Language Coaching in higher education (www.forumtaalbeleidhogeronderwijs.be).
