Partner University NIH offers free online courses

The Norwegian School of Sport Sciences (NIH) offers online courses, free of charge (with ECTS credits) for students from partner institutions.

The courses are module-based, giving the students the flexibility to decide when to complete each module, within the time-frame of the NIH-semester (August - December and / or January - June). The home-based exam is planned for the end of the semester. Students can choose if they wish to take all, or just some of the courses per semester.
