The Executive Board is a team of 7 people that works full time for a year to organise the KEI-week. This year, the team is active from the 1st of September to the 30th of September. This year is jam-packed and greatly needed in order to organise a 5-day event with 5000 first years and 1000 other students. In the year, you get to know; all the ins and outs of Groningen and its organisations; you work together with an enthusiastic and motivated team; you come into contact with lots of large companies; you are closely in contact with the university and the university of applied sciences in Groningen; and best of all, you give 5000 students an unforgettable introduction to their life to their student career!
Every year there is a new Executive Board, which means the KEI-week stays dynamic and each Board gets their chance to make the KEI-week their own. Each year has a new theme, a new feel to it, and events which reflex the change in the students organising this week. As the Executive Board, this year represents an opportunity to let your creativity, your ambitions and your enthusiasm run wild!
In order to organise a fantastic KEI-week, the Board needs to invent and organise events, get sponsors on board and recruit hundreds of volunteers. Next to this, they need to get as many KEI-participants as possible to join, and keep in contact with student associations and other organisations with an interest in students.
The following people are part of the Executive Board:
| Chairman | Willemijn Griep |
| Secretary | Maaike Kootstra |
| Treasurer | Jitze Kiestra |
| Commercial Relations | Jelmer Buit |

No, not at all! You should see the KEI-week primarily as something that is just fun to do. It is a week full of information. Signing up for the KEI-week does not mean you are obligated to participate in the online events. You are free to join the events you like.
Yes it is. If you want to change your KEI-group for any reason you can contact the OFFICE-crew. To do so, you can call them (050 363 80 90), email them (info@keiweek.nl) or contact them via Whatsapp (+31 6 4422 6680).
If you have found another group which you think is more fun or suits you better? Thats also possible, you’ll will have to contact the OFFICE-crew about your replacement. This is important because we need to know which group you’re a part of in case of an emergency.

The KEI-week is the general introduction week for all incoming higher education students, both at the University of Groningen and the Hanze University of Applied Sciences. The KEI-week is the oldest, largest and cheapest introduction week in the Netherlands.
