Student Exchange Program Norway

Primary education in Norway lasts for seven years. Lower secondary education and upper secondary education last for three years each. It consists of either general or vocational studies. General studies comprise the Foundation Course (first year), Advanced Course I (second year) and Advanced Course II (third year) leading to the Certificate of Upper Secondary Education. Vocational studies comprise the Foundation Course (first year), Advanced Course I (second year) and either Advanced Course II (third year) or Practical training/Apprenticeship (1-2 years) or a Trade skill test leading to a Certificate. The final examination (trade or journeyman's examination) is the same, regardless of whether training took pace at school or in the workplace. Pupils in vocational courses are to be given the opportunity to obtain the additional qualifications required for higher studies. Student Exchange Program Norway
