HBO-pedagoog

Dutch to English Other Education / Pedagogy
X Hogeschool Pedagogiek leidt studenten op tot HBO-pedagoog... Uitgangspunt is de opvoeding van kinderen en jongeren en de begeleiding van (beroeps)opvoeders vanuit een cultuurhistorische context...Bij de ene instelling bestaat de doelgroep uit jongeren, bij de andere werkt men met kinderen. Ook kunnen volwassenen (die direct of indirect met kinderen te maken hebben) de doelgroep vormen.
Higher vocational education teacher? -lecturer? But how could they be teaching children within higher vocational education?

I've decided on vocationally trained educationalist (as opposed to university trained educationalist). Thanks for your solutions, but none of them actually translated the whole phrase!
