F. Wartena - Jet-Net: The analysis of the current educational aspects of the pre-university school system in The Netherlands leads to the observation that an increasing number of youngsters no longer enroll in technically oriented tertiary education. This is accompanied by a decreasing number of students that chooses a technically focused study profile during their secondary school education. At the same time, The Netherlands strives to become a knowledge-based economy. This apparent mismatch is not just recognized but is a point of concern to the government, educational institutes, and business.

In the Jet-Net (Jongeren en Technologie Netwerk Nederland) covenant industry joins forces with the government, educational system and intermediaries to encourage young people in scientific and technical studies by making the technologically oriented classes more appealing and more into touch with the world outside.

Philips is one of the main contributors to Jet-Net. In the HSA group we have created a workshop to teach students in the age of 12-14 how to program a game for their mobile phone. The workshop is called "Bouw je eigen game" and gives the students during 2 hours a first encounter with software development in a very entertaining way.
