Haaga-Helia’s Accessibility Plan
Lead paragraph
At Haaga-Helia, the daily promotion of accessibility belongs to each member of our community. With accessibility, we refer to a state in which no one’s personal characteristics or life situation prevents them from realising their potential at work or in their studies.
The purpose of this accessibility plan is to present the objectives and policies used at Haaga-Helia to promote diversity, strengthen the inclusion of minority groups, in particular, and steer towards the prevention and removal of all kinds of harassment and discrimination from the community. The accessibility plan will be incorporated as part of Haaga-Helia’s quality system.
The accessibility plan is divided in eight topics in accordance with the accessibility criteria developed as part of the OHO initiative (2019), funded by the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture:
- Values, attitudes and operating culture
- Management
- Physical environment
- Digital accessibility
- Teaching and learning
- Support and guidance
- Communications
- Student admissions
The accessibility plan’s objectives and measures for 2023–2024 have also been divided into these eight topics. The accessibility plan is developed and accessibility is promoted by including the Haaga-Helia community in a comprehensive manner. Accessibility is connected to every aspect of our operations, strategy, values and equality planning.
