The Swedish Net University Agency is not a university in itself, and thus does not offer distance courses or programmes of its own. The agency simply offers a database of courses and programmes available. Most of the courses are taught in Swedish, but there are also courses available in English. Like all publicly funded higher education in Sweden, there is no tuition fee.
The agency also supports the development of distance learning courses, and promotes the exchange of experiences in the field.
The office of the Swedish Net University Agency is located in Härnösand in northern Sweden.
