Research
Research and development is seen in close relation to the development of the Professional Bachelor programmes and the further education and training programmes. The practice of the professions is therefore a key notion within the professional profile, and the overall perspective of the CVU. 

It is the mission of the CVU that the Professional Bachelor programmes and the further education and training programmes shall become an essential part of a development-oriented practice in the institutions of its participants and thus benefit the children, the young people, and adults who use these.
