Etableringsprogrammet
The introduction programme (etableringsprogrammet) is the Public Employment Service's (Arbetsförmedlingen) programme for newly arrived people and includes sfi, work placement and job seeking, normally over two years. The aim is for the person to learn Swedish faster, get in contact with working life and be able to support themselves. Since it is run by the Public Employment Service it is a national measure, even though parts such as the language education are done in cooperation with the municipality (kommun).
