Q&A - Questions and answers about Norway

I am interested in learning the Norwegian language with the aim of settling in Norway but I would like to know if the school, at the end of the course, grants a work permit.
“At present (2023) we do not work with any schools in Norway.
Regarding your question about the work permit, it is best to contact the embassy, please. The regulations for obtaining a visa are quite delicate and change constantly, so it is best to always contact the embassy or consulate of the country you are going to visit in your home country.
