The course will take the form of a mentoring programme. The aim is to deepen professional skills and networking.
The value of mentoring lies in the fact that the student is matched with a personal mentor who has graduated from Haaga-Helia. Mentoring is learning together, sharing experiences and knowledge through interaction.
As the programme is looking for a personal mentor for participants, those accepted for the course must respond in good time to a preliminary questionnaire sent by email.
It is up to the student to define the objectives for the mentoring. The objectives may be related to career planning, finding a concrete internship or job, facing the challenges of a final stage of working life or studying, self-development, getting to know Finnish working life or deepening expertise. The programme aims at the professional growth of the student and the strengthening of professional connections.
In the introduction, you will learn about the basics of mentoring and refine your objectives. The first group meeting will introduce you to your mentor and the rules of mentoring, agree on a schedule of the personal meetings and develop your interpersonal skills. In the second group meeting, you will network with all participants and hear a guest lecture. In the third meeting, networking will be further deepened.
The course is recommended to be taken preferably at the end of studies.
NOTE! The course is open to all degree students, regardless of campus, programme or orientation. Master's students can enrol, but the credits are not included in the degree.
Material is found in Moodle.
The course is implemented in a work-oriented manner in cooperation with Haaga-Helia's alumni, who act as mentors in the program.

The mentoring programme aims at the professional growth and the strengthening of professional relationships of the student (mentee).
The value of mentoring lies in particular in the fact that the mentee is assigned a personal mentor (a Haaga-Helia alum) who guides and supports the mentee in challenges. Mentoring is about learning together, sharing experiences and knowledge through interaction.
The mentee self defines the objectives for the process. The objectives may be related to career planning, finding a concrete internship or job, challenges in the working life or in the final phase of studies, self-development or deepening expertise.
The mentoring programme consists of one-to-one mentoring meetings between mentor and mentee, joint group meetings and self-study materials in Moodle. In the kick off meeting, the objectives and ground rules of mentoring are discussed, a mentoring agreement is drawn up and interpersonal skills are developed.
NOTE! The course is open to all degree students, regardless of campus, programme or orientation. Master students can enrol, but the credits are not included in the degree.
Material is found in Moodle.

The mentoring program is a developmental process between the mentee (Haaga-Helia student) and the mentor (alumni). Mentoring is about learning together, sharing experiences and knowledge through interaction. The aim is to support the student's professional growth, graduation and employment. The individual goals of the mentoring program arise from the personal needs of the mentee.
As the aim of the programme is to find a dedicated mentor for the participants, those who are accepted for the course must answer the pre-application questionnaire by 8 January at the latest. A link will be sent by email. The course is recommended to be taken towards the end of your studies.
The mentoring program consists of mentoring meetings between the mentor and the mentee, as well as joint group meetings and self-study materials in Moodle. The content of mentoring meetings can be related to, for example, career planning, challenges in working life, challenges in the final stages of study, self-development or deepening expertise. The initial group meeting reviews the objectives and rules of the mentoring process, draws up a mentoring agreement, shares experiences of the mentoring process and develops interaction skills.
NOTE! The course is open to all degree students, regardless of campus, programme or orientation. Master's students can enrol, but the credits are not included in the degree.
