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. The demonstration must be agreed with the course teacher. More information and instructions for recognising and validating prior learning (RPL) are available at https://www.haaga-helia.fi/en/recognition-learning Look at "Instructions to students (master)"

Completion alternatives
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.

Learning assignments
There will be six (6) assignments: a pre-assignment and five (5) learning assignments. The first three (pre-, 1 & 2) belong to the Discovery stage and the last three (3, 4 and 5) belong to the Validation stage.
Students will receive written and/or oral feedback from coaches after having completed each learning assignment. The purpose of this is to support and guide you in the business idea design process.
Students will compile all the assignments into a portfolio. The portfolio will be graded.
