The exceptional circumstances caused by Covid19 during 2020 has brought many challenges to all of us. As the situation is not over yet, for 2021 GM International has organized the FSE course online as distance learning. With this action, we want to protect the health of both our attendees and course provider.

We hope to be able to go back to in-person course soon, but until that we will continue to monitor the situation and inform you if any change may occur in FSE course organization.
