Oodi

Digital skills for beneficiaries

The project OODI studies offer different levels of learning solutions, from everyday digital skills to demanding professional skills in ICT industry.

OODI studies are aimed to persons who have been granted temporary protection in Finland. The courses are primarily online, meaning you can study them regardless of time and location. The studies are conducted mainly in English, which enables participation without Finnish language skills.

The studies offer different levels of learning solutions, from everyday digital skills to demanding professional skills in ICT industry. Language studies and the career guidance process are integrated into the studies to support the participant’s guidance in their studies and their ability to study. The goal is to offer new knowledge, which has a high demand globally. OODI studies are provided by five Finnish universities of applied sciences: Haaga-Helia, HAMK, Laurea, Metropolia, and Xamk.

Study plan­ning

When planning your studies, take into account your schedule and the time you have available, as well as the time needed to complete your studies.

Calculation formula to support the scheduling of studies:
1 credit corresponds to 27 hours of student work. Your previous knowledge affects the time you need to study, with good basic knowledge, time can pass, while a completely new subject can take more time.

Number of hours = Number of credits x 27 hours
example. The scope of the study is 2 credits = 2 x 27 hours = 54 hours, which corresponds to approximately 8 working days.
