Hi, I’ve made a video related to this topic. It should be in the folder labeled “Finnish and Swedish language.” Maybe I should also add it to the “Studies” folder.
All vocational schools have the same minimum requirement of 85 points. However, even this does not guarantee admission to the program; it only gives you the right to apply for training. 85 points is a relatively low threshold, indicating that you are prepared to complete your studies and quickly learn the Finnish language.
@uninaturalformulae835 I recommend you study a little more English when you are so close to the minimum requirement. Log in to a pen pal program on the internet. In addition, read Magazines and books in English. Watching TV and listening to music will also help you achieve your goals.
Since Helsinki is the capital of Finland I doubt that there is much affordable housing or whatever affordable housing there is it’s sought after. I was wondering how good the public transport system in the Greater Helsinki Region is. Are there any neighbourhoods in Espoo that you should avoid or ones that might be good from a students perspective.
I would say that public transportation in the Greater Helsinki area is among the best in Europe. Hoas has more than 10,000 apartments near educational institutions in Helsinki, Vantaa, Espoo and Kauniainen. Otaniemi is popular among students, but I recommend applying primarily near the educational institution.
@@user-rd8ku2eq4n Unfortunately, Karelia UAS does not currently offer the option to complete BBA studies remotely or online. Are you living in Finland or abroad? I ask because different universities have varying opportunities, sometimes tailored to specific groups. Your EU/EEA citizenship status may also affect the tuition fees.
Hello!I am a recent graduate in Information Science and Engineering. Are there any opportunities for getting a job in Finland? I would appreciate your guidance...
In general, Finland has offered excellent opportunities across various sectors, particularly in technology and innovation. The country has produced internationally recognized innovations in fields such as ICT, computing, gaming, artificial intelligence, and healthcare software. Notable examples include Nokia, Angry Birds, Remedy, Rovio, Supercell’s Clash of Clans, the heart rate monitor, and Linux. I would argue that this sector is one of the most versatile, where employment is possible even with just English language skills. Many specialists have been recruited from abroad, with a significant number coming from India.
Even a basic knowledge of the Finnish language improves your chances of finding a job. It depends on the city you live in, and at the very least, you need to have a good command of English if you don’t yet speak Finnish or even Swedish.
Thank you for your kind words. A person who is genuinely happy for someone else’s success is surely a good person, and surely happiness will find you as well!
Thank you so much for your kind words; you have always been so encouraging toward me. I truly hope you get the study place you desire. That way, we’ll also have a great chance to meet in Finland. 😍
The application period for the positions mentioned in the video has ended, but you can still use the companies and websites featured in the video. You can submit an open application. Be sure to check out my other job-related videos as well; they contain additional websites where you can find welder job opportunities in Finland.
That's true, but I think they update the information before the school application starts. It's worth following the page and waiting. Thanks for the message though. ❤ As a reminder, I also inform everyone that I have made a small story about the city of Lieksa in the COMMUNITY section. A couple of my subscribers have asked to tell me what Lieksa is like. I did my best. Lieksa is known in Finland as a city of loss of migration and as a former industrial city, and a movie or maybe a few have been made there. I forgot to mention earlier that there are some great places for tourists to visit in the city, which I have visited myself. There is a chef training in Lieksa and a baker / confectioner training in the neighboring town Nurmes. However, there is still a message for international students visible on the website. "The next application periods for international applicants 29.08.-11.09.2024 see open Admissions below"
Yes, you can, but you need to know the basics of the Finnish language! Additionally, those invited to the entrance exams must come to Savonlinna. Have you watched the video carefully?
Do you mean at which level of education? Vocational school or university of applied sciences? I’ve mentioned all the vocational schools in my Top 5 video... The university of applied sciences has a lot of engineering studies in English.
Sure, you can, but applying for admission and applying for a study permit are two different things. The school decides if you’re admitted, and the immigration authorities decide if you get a study permit. All conditions must be met. You need to have sufficient funds to cover your living expenses, and bringing your family along significantly increases the required amount.
(Edit) I apologize, I had misunderstood the English term. I had obtained the information from the Immigration Office’s website. I checked the Finnish language pages, and the term refers specifically to a ‘registered partnership of two persons of the same sex aged 18 or over.’
Hello John! Thank you for all your informative videos. I want to about the Vocational training program. I will be in joensuu in the coming October with my spouse and baby. My question is, can I settle down there with my family after completing my training program. My training program duration is 3years. Thanks
There have been or will be changes to the law with the aim of ensuring that students quickly find employment after graduation. If not, you may be required to leave the country within a few months. It's important to check the latest information on the Finnish Immigration Service (MIGRI) website to stay informed.
Very welcome sir.. Now im at 36 aged person. But age is not matter for me. I want to learn baker course From revaria vocational training school. Can i apply as a 36 + aged person? Thanks
Thank you, and you’re welcome! Usually, an official language proficiency certificate is required. It’s always advisable to check the specific criteria for each institution and degree program. Several factors can affect this, such as your citizenship and the country and language in which you completed your previous education and qualifications.
I want to encourage all of you to apply for what you dream of, whenever the time is right. It's important to have goals and to dream, and maybe one beautiful day, they will come true for you. 😍🙏🏾🏆
Having goals and dreams is important: that's half the battle. The other part of the battle is to find a way of getting there. With technology and a studious mindset almost anything is possible😁😉.

I am also a beneficiary of your channel John. Got addmission into YSAO vocational school IISALMI city. Thank you so much. Please what does the city looks like?
Congratulations on securing a place of study! I am delighted that you are the fifth person to get a spot. Two have been accepted in Kuopio, two in Joensuu, and you at YSAO in Iisalmi. Iisalmi is on my list of places I want to visit. As far as I know, the city has only a few immigrants, but it is known for its strong international companies. I believe you can find part-time work with these companies during your studies. Iisalmi is an affordable, peaceful, and green small city, perfect for living and studying close to nature. One advantage is that everything is within a short distance.
I couldn't find the age requirement on LAB's website, but typically, most higher education institutions in Finland require applicants to be at least 18 years old when they start their studies. I recommend contacting the school directly for confirmation. The application period for LAB has already ended if you're applying from abroad. However, nursing programs are available at other schools, and the application period opens at the end of August.
Thank you! I wish you good luck with your application. Four of my followers have already been accepted and will be starting their studies soon this fall.
It's genuine and kind people like upu that makes Finland more attractive . I am 40 years old woth decades of experience but no degree . I also am thinking about enrolling in a study programme for two reasons. 1. To show my 2 lovely kids that anything is possible as long as you have the correct mindset. 2. To not have any regrets when i look back on life in the finals hours and regret not compelting my studies . So thank you John for everything you do . Guidance is always welcome .
I completed my last degree when I was over 40 years old. I already had a degree under my belt, but I wanted to learn more. In Finland, people are encouraged to study regardless of their age. These English-language studies are considered adult education because you need to be at least 18 years old, and the programs are flexible, lasting 2-3 years. Previous work experience and education are taken into account when creating a personalized study plan. In standard youth education, the study period is three years and the curriculum is the nearly same for everyone. In Finland, we talk about lifelong learning because the job market is constantly evolving, and even those who are already educated or employed benefit from updating their knowledge periodically. After completing these studies, there are still opportunities to pursue further education or take short supplementary courses. Thank you for your kind words!
@@JohnofFinland291 Thank you for taking the time to respond John . You have given me the encouragement needed to pursue this option. I will keep you posted on my progress and if you don't mind I might reach out to you for guidance if required. Hope you have a wonderful day.
@@JohnofFinland291You have really encouraged me. I am 42. Recently I just completed a course in caregiving in my country. I will do a Duolingo test as to join you guys. Thanks john
@@ItsStrawberryShortCake The world is never complete; there's always room to grow and make things smoother. You can either climb the steps or broaden your skill set. Learning something new is never wasted or in vain. 💡
