TRAININGIN SFI

In an attempt to better integrate immigrants into the Swedish society, the government of Sweden started the Swedish for Immigrants (SFI) program, a national free Swedish language course. While it is primarily a course to learn Swedish, it also serves as an introduction to the country’s culture and society. Here are some key advantages of opting for training in SFI:

STEPPING STONE FOR OPPORTUNITIES If staying in Sweden is a long-term goal, individuals can study SFI in Stockholm or in any other Swedish

city as this provides students with the information they need to plan continued education in Sweden. Joining such a program can also go a long way in helping individuals figure out future employment

prospects, as well as in helping them work on their professional goals.

FLEXIBLE CLASSESThe Swedish for Immigrants program has been created in a way that allows students to personalize their course structure and also take breaks. It is perfectly normal for students to come and pick up their course where they left it off. Whether taking the SFI in Vasteras or in any other city, most classes allow for day,

night, or even remote courses; taking into account individual needs of the students.

BETTER SOCIETAL INTEGRATION The government of Sweden started the SFI program as a way to ensure that immigrants new to the

country can adapt better. The course ensures that people undergoing the program have the basic skills to communicate verbally, and in writing, in Swedish. The Swedish for Immigrants program gives students an

understanding of the values that form the foundation of Swedish society, ensuring that they can participate and contribute actively to the country.
