TUVA – preparatory training for further studies

• The teaching language in TUVA is Finnish. TUVA does not provide teaching in English.

• Your goal is vocational studies or upper secondary school.

• You want to develop your Finnish language skills. For adult applicants the language requirement is A2.1 minimum.

• You are unsure about your career choice and need guidance for it.

• You want to get acquainted with the working life and reflect on your strengths.

• You want to improve your everyday management and study skills.

The extent of the training is up to 38 study weeks (one year), but the duration of the training is individual. The applicant will be interviewed, and if necessary, a language test will be arranged. You can apply either in the spring joint application process or continuously throughout the year. For applicants under the age of 18, there is no language requirement – we have groups at many levels. For adult applicants the language requirement is A2.1. Those without prior vocational studies have priority.
