MOOC study offering by FITech
Learning new things has never been so easy!
FITech offers several open online courses called MOOCs (Massive Open Online Course). These are courses that can be studied flexibly online without restrictions to amounts of participants or schedules. MOOCs can be studied by anyone, but in order to obtain study credits and the FITech digital badge, one must have a Finnish personal identity code.
You do not need to apply or register to study a MOOC course.
These courses are for everyone who wants to explore a new field and its basic concepts or update their skills with a low threshold. Course topics include accessibility, programming, continuous learning, 5G technologies, and artificial intelligence. All courses are suitable for beginners.
General instructions to study on MOOCs
The amount of credits per course may vary. The estimated workload for 1 ECTS credit is 27 hours which means 2 ECTS would estimate 54 hours of studying.
Please notice that in order to get the credits registered, you have to fill in an application in Studyinfo (Opintopolku) after you have completed the course. You will get instructions to do this on the course platform. You need to have a Finnish personal identity code and Finnish e-identification (e.g. online banking access codes) in order to register the study credits. After that, adult learners can apply for FITech’s digital badge for the completed course to add to their LinkedIn profile, for example.
FITech reserves the right to change the course information without prior notice.
