  • Participants

    Anyone with an interest in learning Slovene is very welcome. However, participants must be at least 18 years old.

    Health insurance

    Participants of the course do not automatically have special health and accident insurance and this is why you are asked to arrange your own health insurance in your country of residence prior to your arrival in Slovenia.
