What is the basic course for Tekna representatives?

The basic course is designed to give you the knowledge you need to handle your role as a Tekna union representative. It is mandatory, and Tekna covers all expenses. You are entitled to time off work to participate in basic training – see the Tekna-NHO main agreement § 4.

• Part 1 of the basic course is digital. It is in Norwegian, with English subtitles, and takes about four hours to complete.
