                                    I have an employee who would like to start Danish Education with SVU - what should I do?

If you have an employee who has been employed for more than 26 weeks and wants to start Danish courses, please contact Lolland Language School atsprogskole@lolland.dk

The process varies depending on whether your employee is already taking Danish classes or will be starting Danish for the first time. Once you write to us, we will work with you to find a solution.

If you are not sure your employee is eligible for SVU, or you would like more information about our course options, you are welcome to contact our Education Coordinator, Jessica Chabert Jensen. You can find her contact details at the bottom of the page.
