Education facts

The course consists of a work placement at a company. Duties vary depending on the nature of the business. Students are expected to participate in the daily business, to perform regular duties and to have time for their own studies. Before starting, an individual work plan must be drawn up by the examiner, field supervisor and the student in conjunction. The plan should specify duties to be performed and examined.

On such occasions, the students is expected to present his work-in-progress and the work plan may be revised if necessary.
