In cooperation with NITO, RIF og TEKNA

This course is part of the construction collaboration together with RIF and Tekna. Tekna, RIF and NITO have a total of approximately 25,000 members related to the building, construction and real estate market (BAE). Our respective members work closely together on projects primarily on the consultant side, but also on the builder and contractor side. It is therefore natural that our members and other networks receive the same continuing education offer within the mentioned industry.
