What is a Skills Training Group?

In the Skills Training Group, we play together with the support from a game coach. The games are chosen based on the group’s interests – for example, Valorant, League of Legends, and Apex Legends. In the group, you will also explore and practice your study skills through gaming. No previous gaming experience is required to join.

The group is for students in vocational education or universities of applied sciences. Before the group begins, participants will complete an initial skills assessment. Participation is free of charge.
