Permanent Residence Package NOTE A1-B1 and 50/75 hours Social Studies

Course Package for Permanent Residency in Norway:

Online courses with NoTe are an effective and flexible way to gain the knowledge you need to pass the Norwegian language and social studies tests.
You can take both courses at the same time or separately – whichever suits you best. The courses are offered in both Norwegian and English, and you’ll get plenty of speaking practice through weekly group sessions held during the day and in the evening, at different levels.

In addition to the lessons, you will have access to a wide range of targeted exercises in the online courses, giving you a strong foundation in both the Norwegian language and social studies.
The exercises are designed to support you throughout the entire learning process and help you understand important topics in society, while at the same time strengthening your language proficiency.

This package includes two courses:

1. NOTE A1-A2-B1 (3-6 months)

NOTE A1-A2-B1 is a comprehensive course that includes exercises in grammar, reading, listening, writing, and speaking. The course is developed by the team at NOTE and contains a wide variety of task types. The course works on both PC, mobile and tablet.

We offer group classes at A1–B1 level, with 2 hours of daytime instruction and 2 hours of evening instruction per level, per week. Teaching takes place through video calls. All of our Norwegian teachers have extensive experience and several of them are examiners on the Norwegian test for HK-dir (Kompetanse Norge). These classes provide a great opportunity for those who want to strengthen their Norwegian skills.
