Implementation methods, demonstration and Work&Study

Contact, Blended, Virtual

Intro

This course gives you a strong base for other law studies. The course provides an opportunity to learn about the basic legal environment in which companies operate. You study basics of contract law, familiarize yourself with administration of companies, learn about the main Finnish rules based on EU legislation safeguarding consumers as well as key points on employment relationships both in respect of employees or managerial positions.

This course corresponds to the Finnish key competence course Yritysjuridiikka.

Materials

Please note that the demonstration process is based on your previously acquired skills and knowledge (e.g. through work) and therefore, no learning materials are provided for you for the demonstration exams and interview.

Accordingly, you should carefully familiarize yourself with the learning objectives of the course to decide whether your skills and competencies match them.

Teaching methods and instruction

If you already have acquired the skills and competences set out in the learning objectives of this course, you can demonstrate your skills and competence. The demonstration will be completed within this DEMO implementation, to which you should enroll in PEPPI.

If you already have enrolled on a Haaga-Helia implementation of International Business Law it is important that you inform both the teacher of your implementation and pia.vapaavuori@haaga-helia.fi during the first week of the implementation of your willingness to initiate the demonstration process. You will then be removed from the implementation by the course teacher.

The demonstration cannot be completed, if you are actively on an implementation of International Business Law or if you previously have received a grade for the course (0 - 5).

Assessment methods

In the demonstration, you will show your previously acquired skills by completing two exams and participating in an interview. The exams and the interview cover the following subjects as set out in the course description:

-contract law,
-consumer protection,
-labour law, and
-company law.

Your competence will be assessed according to the course assessment criteria.
