Karin Ellis, who is the founder of Ellis Culture, and author of the books ‘Working with Norwegians’ and ‘Applying for jobs in Norway’.

 

There is a maximum of 25 seats in the MH2 12.346 Rådsrom.

We may not offer to transfer the course by Skype, as we have received reasonable arguments against it.

We will therefore put in more chairs, aiming to seat more people than 25, up to the limit that we have to consider the room full. 

If there seems to be many more interested than we can offer entering the room this time, we will repeat it soon.
