Schedule for the Professional Teacher studies

  • You can study while working according to your personal development plan (PDP) and graduate flexibly within approximately 12‒18 months.
  • A PDP is drafted in order to acquire the expertise. It is used to identify and recognise prior knowledge and studies as well as teaching experience. PDP is used for designing the development path for the student.
  • The studies vary between contact teaching, online learning, independent assignments and group assignments. You will work in peer groups for the first 12 months and if your studies continue for over a year, you will work independently with your tutor.
  • The teaching and tutoring practice allows students to develop their hands-on skills. You will plan the time and place of the teaching and tutoring practice with your tutor. The training can be completed continuously or in several separate teaching lessons. Students who work in educational institutions can have their own educational institution as a training environment. The practice may also take place in projects between a vocational institution and working life, workplaces in the industry or in third sector locations.
  • Ensure that the scheduled contact days fit into your timetable, and that you are able to attend the face-to-face teaching on Pasila Campus in Finland.
