Introductory programme for newly arrived refugees
-
Generelt om tjenesten
Tenesteomtale
The aim of the introduction programme is to strengthen refugees’ ability to participate in the labour market and to help them become more financially independent. You must be a resident in a municipality by agreement with the immigration authorities and you must also be in need of basic qualifications.
The introduction programme must at least include instruction in the Norwegian language and society, and must prepare participants for participating in the labour force. The programme will be year-round, full-time and can last for up to two years. An individual plan will be prepared for you based on your training needs. As a participant, you are entitled to introductory support. On an annual basis, this amounts to twice the basic national insurance amount. Persons under the age of 25 will receive 2/3 of the support amount.
