Information about student finance for transition and retraining

We are not registered as a transition organization with the Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency (Kammarkollegiet). This means we cannot provide statements to The Swedish Board of Student Finance (CSN) regarding whether an education is deemed to strengthen your position in the labor market when applying for student finance for transition and retraining.

For questions regarding the assessment of your studies or the application process, we therefore refer you to CSN, which is the responsible authority for this support.

We are happy to help you with other questions related to our operations.
