Do you have a business idea?

The training is primarily meant for immigrants who are living North Karelia, are interested in entrepreneurship and have a business idea. You should have know-how and familiarity with the field you are aiming at with your business. Expertise can be acquired via education, work experience and personal interest or hobbies.

Basic computer skills are also required, as well as Internet access and your own computer. If you don’t have a laptop, the teacher will bring you one to be used during the first two face-to-face study days.

The course  is held mainly in English. However, a good knowledge of Finnish is required to understand the most important terminology, organisations and networks in Finnish.
