Enrolling and general information

Enrolling

All enrolling is done through the Norwegian swimming federations page www.tryggivann.no

Before you sign up for, we recommend that you use our level selector to find the right level https://oi-svomming.no/nivavelger-2/

Via waiting lists we resign the course participants at the end of each month. Through email, you will receive an offer for a course that you can either accept or decline depending on whether or not the time works for you. When you sign up on the waiting list, we recommend strongly that you enter the days you want so that we may take this into consideration.  It is also worth mentioning that the more alternate options you provide us, the sooner you get a spot.

Preferential

At the end of each semester (before the Christmas holidays and before the summer holidays), all registered course participants who want to continue their courses need to register themselves via Tryggivann.

Course participants will, a week after registration opens, have priority on the courses for next semester. Ie course registration opens a week earlier for those who are registered for courses lasting the semester. Based on the recommendation you get by your instructor, you will get a list of days, places and times for their continued courses. Then you simply choose the course that suits your needs.

After the preferential period is over, we will begin to sign up those who are on the waiting lists. 

 

Holidays and vacations

The courses follow the school holiday schedule, and will not be held during school holidays.

 The price per month is calculated by finding the total price for a whole year and divide by the number of payment months. The price per month is the same regardless of the number of courses each month.

 

Proceeding to the next course level

The instructors provide feedback on the participant’s progress once a month. If the  course participant has completed all the objectives and is ready to move forward, you will be advised to proceed to the next level.

The courses Department transfers the participant to the next level and then sends information about what time the new course will be held. We are working to make as few changes as possible when it comes to time as we know that many families have multiple activities that need to be taken into consideration. However, there are some occasions were it will be necessary to reschedule as we dont have a choice

The time each participant spends on all of our course levels will be up to the participant’s own development and motivation.
