2011–12 Belgian Second Division

Each period winner qualifies for the Belgian Second Division final round.

On 14 April 2012, Charleroi became champions without playing as closest rivals Eupen and Oostende both did not manage to win their matches and thereby could no longer mathematically overtake Charleroi in the standings.

After promotion and relegation, only 13 teams remained in the league, with 5 other being replaced: The season is divided into three periods.

The winner of this final round gets to play in the 2012–13 Belgian Pro League.

Already after the first nine matches of the season, Eupen clinched the first period title.
