ScandinavianStudent Commision

Campus NooA is establishing a Scandinavian Student Commission with six representative participants among NooA’s online students. Their mandate is to find an organitation form and an action plan to provide advice and suggestions for improved quality for NooA’s courses and services.

The student commission is initially limited to Scandinavian students, since it was introduced as an argument to get financial support from Vox, wich is a Norwegian agency.
