Studification

Skills from work

Studification allows you to make your previously acquired skills visible. It also allows the job seeker to build up new skills by doing practical work.

The job seeker receives a certificate of competence as a result of the learning process, which helps to identify the competence and allows the job seeker to demonstrate their competence in order to obtain a diploma from the educational institution.

Tasks of the job seeker

• Carrying out work tasks and acquiring skills in line with objectives
•  

  Assessing personal competence together with a BusinessOulu mentor/personal coach

•  

  Giving feedback

•  

  Building a career path to continue on.

New recruitment paths and talents through supervision

Studification is a new type of recruitment channel, enabling employers to find new motivated employees.

In studification, the job seeker is supervised by a workplace supervisor so that they gain skills and become familiar with the job tasks.

Describing the learning environment for the studification period gives the employer a clearer picture of the job tasks in the workplace.

Tasks of the workplace supervisor

• Identifying suitable work tasks to describe the learning environment
•  

  Job orientation and guidance of the job seeker

•  

  Identifying the skills of the job seeker when compiling the certificate of competences

•  

  Providing feedback

• Co-creating an operational model for studification.
