During the week, you will participate in workshops about jobs in Denmark, you will get a Danish Crash course, go on different excursions and show your creative talent in a photo-marathon.
We will conclude the week with a competition and celebration, where drinks and snacks will be served.
Participation is for free, but if you register and don't show up, there will be a no-show fee of 500 DKK.
