This is a great opportunity to learn Norwegian for free funded by the Norwegian Government and Skills Norway. This is a cooperation between Sodexo and Folkeuniversitetet to help you become more confident in communicating in Norwegian and strengthen your skills for the Norwegian working life and as an employee at Sodexo.
