The mission of the Nordic Institute for Advanced Training in Occupational Health – in short NIVA – is set by the Nordic Council of Ministers. We gather top experts and knowledge from the Nordic countries and transform research findings into advanced courses and seminars within the field of occupational health and safety for researchers and practitioners from both the Nordic countries and world-wide. We rely on our extensive network of occupational health and safety specialists throughout research institutions and organizations in the Nordic countries. We believe in the power of networking and people meeting each other. Our courses take place in Nordic capitals, in general last 2-3 days , provide hard core substance information, and offer excellent networking opportunities.
