Study Guide

Learning outcomes

The student is able to
- develop their entrepreneurial capacities
- draw up a viable business plan
- act in a client-oriented, responsible and entrepreneurial manner taking into account the special features in the social and health sector
- take advantage of financial and operational performance data and use it as a basis for a sustainable and financially profitable solution

Teaching methods

A Canvas learning environment is used to support the implementation, but it is important to take part in teaching and guidance on campus according to schedule. The study unit includes working in pairs or groups. You will receive individual feedback for assignments from the teacher, and working life or peer feedback may also be utilised.

Learning materials and recommended literature

All material can be found in the Canvas learning environment

Alternative completion methods of implementation

All students are entitled to demonstrate their competence. The recognition and accreditation of prior competence is initiated by the students themselves. The competence is recognised and accredited by the teacher responsible for the studies or another person designated to the position. The assessment is carried out according to the same assessment criteria and, as a rule, same grading scale as that adopted for the corresponding study unit or module. The student is entitled to apply for accreditation of prior competence regardless of where, how and when the competence has been acquired. The student may also seek accreditation of competence to be acquired on the job as part of their degree (work-based learning). The student is responsible for demonstrating and verifying their competence and for providing sufficient information.

Further information for students

The study unit corresponds to the requirements of Bachelor's level education.
According to the degree regulations (section 18) "students must be present for the first contact teaching session, or they must notify the responsible teacher of their absence to confirm they intend to participate in studies, Alternatively, the teacher can specify a different manner for the student to confirm that they intend to participate in the studies. The completion of these measures can be required within a week of the studies having begun. The application of the aforementioned approach requires that the teacher notifies the students accepted to the study unit of the practice and that the practice is specifically mentioned in the study unit’s implementation plan.

If the student has a justified reason for not attending the first contact teaching session or for not notifying the teacher of their intention to be involved in studies in the manner required by the teacher, the student must contact the responsible teacher to agree on participation in the studies. Their registration for the study unit will be rejected, of the student does not notify the teacher of being absent from the first contact teaching session or the reason for their absence cannot be considered justified, Another student who is in line for the study unit can be selected in their place."

Contact lessons are compulsory (at least 80% attendance is expected) . Attendance is required as the contact lessons are interactive: information is acquired through discussion and activities in the classroom.


Deadlines are provided for the assignments. Feedback is given on all assignments. However, in the circumstances that the deadline is not met, no feedback will be provided for that assignment.
An accepted evaluation will be based on the completion of al the required assignments and attendance.

Laurean tutkintosäännön mukaisesti ”Kaikilla opiskelijoilla on oikeus osaamisensa näyttämiseen. Aloitteen hankitun osaamisen tunnistamisesta ja tunnustamisesta tekee opiskelija. Osaamisen tunnistaa ja tunnustaa opinnosta vastaava opettaja tai muu tehtävään nimetty henkilö. Arvioinnissa noudatetaan samaa arviointikriteeristöä ja pääsääntöisesti samaa arviointiasteikkoa kuin vastaavalla opintojaksolla tai -kokonaisuudella. Opiskelijalla on oikeus hakea osaamisen tunnustamista riippumatta siitä, missä, miten ja milloin osaaminen on hankittu. Opiskelija voi hakea myös työssä hankittavan osaamisen tunnistamista osaksi tutkintoa (työn opinnollistaminen). ... Opiskelija vastaa osaamisen osoittamisesta, todistamisesta ja riittävien tietojen toimittamisesta. Osaamisen arvioivat opiskelija ja näytön vastaanottava ohjaaja yhdessä. ” Katso lisätietoa opiskelijaintrasta.

Osaamisen arviointi kohdistuu tavoitekuvauksiin ja osaamisen taso arvioidaan opinnon toteutussuunnitelmalla ilmoitetun arviointikriteeristön perusteella (Tutkintosääntö 2024).

”Osaamisen arviointi kohdistuu opetussuunnitelmien tavoitekuvauksiin ja osaamisen taso arvioidaan opinnon toteutussuunnitelmalla ilmoitetun arviointikriteeristön perusteella” (Laurean tutkintosääntö).

Harjoittelu arvioidaan hyväksytty/hylätty. Arviointi tapahtuu suhteessa kyseisen harjoittelun tavoitteisiin. Opiskelijalla on mahdollisuus täydentää hylättyä suoritustaan ohjaavan opettajan kanssa sovitulla tavalla.

Opinnon arvioinnissa käytetään amk-tutkinto-opiskelijan osaamisen arviointikehikon vaativuustason II mukaisia kriteereitä, jotka on kuvattu alla.

Ammatillinen tietoperusta, tiedonhaku ja raportointi:

Arvosanan hyväksytty tasolla opiskelija osaa
- käyttää johdonmukaisesti ammattikäsitteitä ja osoittaa perehtyneensä tietoperustaan
- raportoida ja viestiä ammattimaisesti

Ammatillinen toiminta ja työelämän kehittäminen:

Arvosanan hyväksytty tasolla opiskelija osaa
- toimia itsenäisesti toimintaympäristö huomioiden
- ottaa vastuuta asiakkaan ja /tai yhteistyötahon kanssa toimimisesta ja heidän tarpeisiinsa vastaamisesta

Ryhmätyötaidot, johtaminen ja vastuullisuus:

Arvosanan hyväksytty tasolla opiskelija osaa
- kuvata oman toimintansa merkitystä yhteistyön onnistumiseksi
- kuvata osaamistaan suhteessa opinnon osaamistavoitteisiin

”Opiskelijan, joka ei ole osoittanut osaamistaan arviointikriteeristön edellyttämällä hyväksytyllä tasolla, tulee täydentää tai uusia suorituksensa opintojakson opettajan määrittelemällä tavalla ja opettajan määrittelemässä ajassa. Mikäli opiskelija ei suorituksensa täydentämismahdollisuudesta huolimatta saa hyväksyttyä arviointia, hänen tulee suorittaa opintojakso uudelleen opettajan kanssa sovitulla tavalla.” (Tutkintosääntö 2024.)

Kaikkien Laurean toimijoiden odotetaan noudattavan hyviä tieteellisiä käytänteitä, joihin kuuluu asianmukainen lähteisiin viittaaminen. Perehdy ja kysy käytänteistä tarvittaessa. Kaikki opintotehtävät tehdään yksilötyönä, jollei tehtävässä ole muuta ohjeistettu. Plagioinnin tarkistuksen käytöstä tehtävien tarkistuksen yhteydessä opettaja kertoo erikseen.

The assessment is carried out according to the same assessment criteria and, as a rule, same grading scale as that adopted for the corresponding study unit or module. The student is entitled to apply for accreditation of prior competence regardless of where, how and when the competence has been acquired. The student may also seek accreditation of competence to be acquired on the job as part of their degree (work-based learning).

The student may also seek accreditation of competence to be acquired on the job as part of their degree (work-based learning).
