If you lack the formal qualifications to certain subjects

The subjects offered as minors require formal qualifications to attend. If you desire a certain subject and do not have the qualifications, you attend a course of qualification which will give you access if you pass the test at the end of the course. We offer courses that can give access to the following subjects during your 1st semester:

● Art

● Physical Education

● Science

● French

● German

You are welcome to attend eventhough you may have the formal qualifications but with to practice or prepare yourself. Please inform the coordinator, Dorte Palm, if you would like to attend one of the courses.

The study start test

The purpose of the study start test is to give you a good start to your education. 

During the test you will meet guidelines, links, videos and small tests that will enable you to move around the various digital platforms of the education. The test will give you information about courses and inform you about the social life and community of the education including student boards. 

During the introduction week, time will be provided to work with the test. Thus, you are not required to respond to the questions before the introduction days. You will receive the link to the test in your student mail.

The study start test is not a test which is part of the subject of education, and you will pass merely by completing the test. 

It is, however, very important that you complete the test within the given deadline as we will otherwise have to omit you from the education.

Literature and portable computer

Information about literature and study plan will be provided in the various subject rooms in itslearning.

Lecturers from the various subjects will join you during the introduction week and inform you about the subjects and which literature to aquire.

In addition, you can always ask the lecturer during the first lessons.

The teacher education does not have set lists of literature. The lecturers decide which literature to study each semester.

To participate, it is essential to have a portable computer.
