Consider a learning environment where you and your fellow students voluntarily and enthusiastically remain on campus after the end of a day of teaching. Because you want to be better. Even better.

The majority of educational programs are also available as online studies with programmes starting up four times a year. All documentation and learning material is digitally available to all students.

The higher vocational education awards credits where 60 credits is equivalent to one year of education. All of our educational programs are accredited by the Norwegian Agency for Quality Assurance in Education (NOKUT) and have been approved for student loans and grants by the Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund (Statens Lånekasse for utdanning). The two-year educational program can be extended by a third study year abroad, leading to a bachelor’s degree.
