We offer various short professional development courses funded by Finnish National Board of Education and custom-built courses according to the needs of your organisation and our themed courses include:

  • English as a Tool for Teaching (including Teaching Knowledge Test)

To keep our courses contemporary and relevant we are committed to developing and updating them to meet the changing needs of the educational and business environment. We have a long tradition of working with educational institutions and companies from a variety of professional sectors locally and nationally to provide innovative skills-development courses.

Currently we are the only Cambridge ESOL exam centre in Finland offering Teaching Knowledge Test (TKT). Modular training of this test in Finland is available through us.
