The K2 administration will be out of office Wednesday 16 December. The expedition will also be unattended this day.
UiB will arrange pedagogical training for group leaders on January 6-8. The course will give you the chance to discuss and plan your own teaching, hence it is an advantage that several group leaders from the same course participate at the same time. That way they can talk with each other about preparations for the course. For more information (in Norwegian) click here.
From 1 December, the new learning platform “Mitt UiB” is available to users.
Login from http://mitt.uib.no.
All employees will be offered training in December, according to information provided earlier in dialogue with the faculty administration.
You can find further information and course calendar on the DigUiB websites.
