Implementation methods, demonstration and Work&Study

Learning takes place in contact lessons, as independent studies, teamwork and online-studies. The course includes one (i) mid-term assignment (short report) and (ii) the assessment of one’s own learning.

If students have acquired the required competence in previous work tasks, recreational activities or on another course, they can show their competence via a demonstration and thus progress faster through their studies. More information and instructions for recognizing and validating prior learning (RPL) are available on Haaga-Helia's website.
