The Ministry of Education and Culture Funds Guidance Centre

The idea is to create a joint guidance centre for all students studying in Swedish in the Helsinki region. The guidance centre will offer services to make the transition from high school to higher education smother. It will also serve students during their studies at the HEIs. The services offered will include guidance and preparation for working life.

The initiative was taken by Arcada University of Applied Sciences. Now Hanken, the University of Helsinki and the University of Arts in addition to Arcada are all working together on this project .

The Ministry of Education and Culture granted 25 Million euro in special support to develop higher education and Hanken is part of two other projects as well, which are still in the planning stage.
