Validation
Validation and accreditation aim to acknowledge the competencies you have acquired through work experience, previous studies, licenses, or similar.
You must be enrolled in a program to validate and receive credit for courses. If the management team determines that you have demonstrated the knowledge in the subject that meets the objectives outlined in the syllabus, a decision will be made to grant you credit for the course. This means that you, as a student, do not need to take that course in the program.
The validation process begins with you conducting a competency mapping. You must submit a correctly filled validation form along with supporting documents that verify your competencies, such as work certificates, licenses, certificates, employer attestations, and grades, to the program coordinator. All your supporting documents should be clearly linked to the syllabus for each course in the program that you wish to validate. The results of the validation will be a mapping statement, which serves as the basis for upcoming decisions.
You can read more about validation here: For those who want to validate their competencies – The Swedish National Agency for Higher Vocational Education (myh.se)
Special Educational Support
At Nackademin, we want everyone who needs special educational support to feel that they receive appropriate and tailored support. Therefore, we have a dedicated full-time person with educational support and professional Swedish. Educational support can take various forms but is about adapting the learning process for the individual student and should be linked to educational support measures.
If you need educational support in your studies due to a permanent disability or other challenges that can be substantiated with a medical certificate, you may be entitled to special educational support measures You may also be eligible for support if you have previously received special educational support measures.
