The Committee of Recommendation (also known as Comité van Aanbeveling or CvA) is an external body bound to VIP. This body consists out of several people bound to the university, city, or the field of psychology in general. As we find it important that VIP as an association, fits in with the norms and values within our society, we have asked these people to show their support for our association. Every year, the members of the CvA receive our secretarial year report. This report encompasses, amongst other things, the policy plan, the major decisions that have been made within the associations, and an evaluation of every activity that VIP has (co-)organized. By asking the members of the CvA for feedback, we can ensure that we remain on the right path as an association.
