The college periods last a total of 55 to 60 weeks and the apprentice weeks total 148 to 168 weeks. Basic course 1 (GF1) All students who have completed primary school less than two years earlier will start by taking a 20-week basic cou- rse (GF1). At the latest by the end of the basic course, the student will have to select which vocational programme they wish to embark on after GF1.
