Programmets årsrapport for 2010 er nå publisert.
14. juni leverte Integreringsutvalget sin rapport om integrering til Regjeringen. Utvalgets mandat har vært å vurdere hvordan integreringsarbeidet virker og foreslå forbedringer. De har analysert områder som arbeid, utdanning, demokrati og samfunnsdeltakelse, og har kommet med konkrete forslag på alle disse områdene.
Hero kompetanse er en kursleverandør for minoritetsspråklige med kurs- og kompetansesentre i Bergen, Oslo og Stavanger. Deres målsetting er å bidra aktivt til at minoritetsspråklige skal få det som kreves av utdanning og kompetanse for å integreres på det norske arbeidsmarkedet. Ved avdelingen i Bergen ønskes nå kontakt med personer med høyere utdanning og undervisningserfaring med tanke på mulige kortvarige engasjementstillinger til høsten.
