The discussion atmosphere was seen as productive, with all parties agreeing to iron out communication difficulties and improve the general positive communication both internally and externally and parties have suggested that there will be a direct contact person within EP-Nuffic for all private Universities of Applied Science, through their representative body NRTO.

The meetings were concluded by WUAS giving a tour of both the (new) Spoorstraat and Aventus campus locations, with special attention for the new academic library created at the Spoorstraat.
