Subject codes

All subjects in upper secondary education have their own subject codes. The subject codes can be found in the VIGO code base or at udir.no.

On udir.no you will also find an overview of the new subject codes for LK20 and which replace the subject codes from LK06.

Subject code FBJ9000

Compressed training towards the centrally given Vg3 exam Vocational certificate on the job

The subject code FBJ9000 "Compressed training towards centrally given Vg3 exam Vocational certificate at work" is used to indicate the number of hours of theoretical training candidates receive in connection with the training Vocational certificate at work.

The subject code should not be printed on documentation. Grades should not be recorded for the subject. The code is used in connection with the delivery of statistics to Udir and SSB.

Subject codes for modular structured vocational education and training for adults

xxxV100 is common to all program areas - Introduction to module-structured subjects and vocational training.

Approved will correspond to a grade of 2 or better.

In order to be able to sign up for the professional and apprentice test, the participant in the test must have been assessed "Passed" in all modules.

Subject code for the practical letter test

A common subject code has been created for the practice letter test.

The practice certificate scheme is a new training scheme within vocational subjects. Refers to Circular Udir 2-2017 .

The code is PRA3210 – Practice letter test.

Subject code FOS9000 - Subject training in school - subject Vg3

The vocational code must be used for apprentices who receive vocational training at school (alternative Vg3 at school).

The subject code must not be graded and it is not necessary to enter student hours in the subject. The subject code must only be used in program areas at Vg3 for subjects with the variants xxxxx3F— (alt. xxxxx3F1– and xxxxx3F2–) and xxxxx3H— (xxxxx = current program area code). The code is intended to be used to link the students' training to the teachers.

Information on the guidelines for registering apprentices/apprenticeship candidates with vocational training in schools can be found here:

Vocational education-in-school-19-10-2015.pdf


The guidelines apply both to registration in the school administrative systems (for the school part) and in VIGO (the vocational training part).

Subject code TEO9000 - Compressed training towards a written Vg3 exam in teaching subjects

Certain county councils provide condensed training in program subjects for practical candidates, or apprentices with full training in a company, who must take a written exam at Vg3.

A new subject code has been created for this group of students: TEO9000 - Compressed training towards the Vg3 written exam in apprenticeship subjects.

The vocational code does not have a fixed number of hours. The individual school must therefore enter the relevant number of hours for each individual student. See more information about this in the user manuals for the relevant school administrative systems.

Program area code Used for people taking training as:
xxxxx3Y— trainee
xxxxx3G— Apprentice with full in-company training straight from primary school
xxxxx3G1– Apprentice with full in-company training after Vg1
xxxxx3G2– Apprentice with full in-company training after Vg2
xxxxx3K— Apprenticeship candidate with full in-company training straight from primary school
xxxxx3K1– Apprenticeship candidate with full in-company training after Vg1
xxxxx3K2– Apprenticeship candidate with full training in business after Vg2

xxxxx = current program area code

The professional code does not come from Grep, but has been approved by Udir and Statistics Norway for use in connection with the reporting of public statistics.

We also remind you of the program area codes to be used in connection with this training:

The individual county council must inform its schools about the new code.

Subject codes for preparatory courses (introductory courses)

Subject codes have been created for minority-language students who attend preparatory courses (introductory courses).

The new subject codes are:

All codes start with A to link this to AOLOV0J—- or AOLOV0J-NM. Three unspecified subjects have been created which can be used if the other subject codes do not fit.

The vocational code does not have a fixed number of hours. The individual school must therefore enter the relevant number of hours for each individual student. See more information about this in the user manuals for the relevant school administrative systems .

The professional code does not come from Grep, but has been approved by Udir and Statistics Norway for use in connection with the reporting of public statistics.

We also remind you of the program area codes to be used in connection with this training:

Program area code Program area
