Student in Open UAS
Starting your Open UAS Studies
How do I get instructions for studies? Where can I get the username for Jamk systems? Where does the study take place? From whom can I get a form for the TE office? How long can I study?
The course letter will be e-mailed
Before starting the studies, you will be e-mailed a course letter, which contains the confirmation of course commencement, information on practical course arrangements and contact information. The letter instructs you to go through the steps mentioned below before starting your studies. Please note! Study letters are often directed to spam, so please check your spam email as well and mark the message as not spam.
Things to do before the studies
1. Get your Jamk username
Please, read the Jamk network usage rules and guide to new users. Get your personal username and password from the Self service password reset with help of these instructions after you have received the study letter in your e-mail. The service is used with your online banking credentials. If you do not have online banking credentials, please contact us.
- What is my username?
- Please note that most ICT services in Jamk require strong authentication.
2. Familiarize yourself with Jamk systems and practices
a) Take the test to determine the entry level of your digital skills and familiarise yourself with the Jamk student’s digital learning skills material.
b) Sign in to Peppi, Student's Desktop. There you can see your own information and schedules (on calendar click Own realizations button). From the Atomi service, you can download an electronically signed study certificate or transcript of records.

4. For study path students: pre-assignment and orientation week
If you are starting a study path, check out the new student's intra for the orientation week program (Field-specific information). In intra you will also find a link to a pre-assignment that must be done before the start of studies. Course registrations are made under supervision during the orientation week / days.
5. Get started!
Join the studies on schedule. Distance studies are mainly pursued in the Moodle e-learning environment. The course environment opens just before the commencement of the studies. You can practice using the e-learning environment with the Student Moodle Orientation course in Moodle. See the instructions on Moodle.
Enjoy your studies!

The duration of studies is determined in the course information. The studies must be completed in the schedule specified at the beginning of the studies. The user name is until the end of the semester. Your right to study can also be denied if you have unpaid study fees for Jamk Open UAS.
