What students say

  • Hei og takk for en meget hyggelig og lærerik helg. Må bare takke for god gjennomgang og pedagogisk fremføring av et ganske vanskelig materiale! Snakk om fornøyd jente, jeg skal uten tvil anbefale dere videre!
    Hege
  • Jeg vil takke deg for et fantastisk kurs. Du er veldig flink og dyktig til å formidle et, for oss, tungt men viktig budskap. Vi satt pris på at det ble formidlet med stor tydelighet og i et passe langsomt tempo, så alle kunne få det med seg!

Frequently asked questions

What people wonder about before they sign up.

Who can take the boating licence?

Anyone who turns 14 by the exam. You can take the test from 14, but you get the licence itself when you turn 16.

Do I need a book?

We recommend «Båtførerprøven i teori og praksis» alongside the online course. The book follows the same structure as the course, chapter by chapter.

Charts, dividers and plotters are lent to you on the classroom courses and at the exam.

What if I am not happy with the online course?

The online courses have a 30-day satisfaction guarantee, or your money back.

What if I fail the exam?

You can take it again after 14 days. It costs a fee of 495 kr, paid through the boating licence register.
