Educational programmes have an operational structure which restricts their flexibility. Design principles from the fields of operations management and instructional design were applied for the design of a flexible approach in educational programmes. In a case study, the curriculum and operational data from an institute for higher professional education in the Netherlands were used to develop a discrete-event simulation model, in order to demonstrate effects of operational changes on the flexibility of their educational programmes. Programme coordinators of the institute validated the model and considered it as a feasible solution for organizing their educational programmes, and as a contribution to educational innovation.
