The training covers the following topics:
- Basics of Finnish early childhood education and care
- Holistic learning and transversal competencies
- Learning through play methods
- Assessment and early support measures
- Learning environments indoors and outdoors
The training programme is tailored for teachers in early childhood education and care (ECEC) and pre-primary education (children aged 0–6). The content can also be adjusted for teacher educators or pedagogical leaders.
The training programme aims to broaden participants' perspectives on ECEC, empowering them to create holistic teaching through play that enhances children’s school readiness in a stress-free manner adapted to their developmental stage.
The training programme consists of interactive theoretical lectures alongside practical exercises with concrete cases, all aimed at supporting learners in applying the acquired knowledge to their own contexts. If the training takes place in Finland, it also involves a visit to a local school and observation of the topic in practice.
The training programme is designed to last 3-5 days, but it can be adjusted based on customer preferences, as the training packages are always customized to meet specific needs. Implementation can be arranged either in Finland or, in some cases, in the destination country as well.
The price of the programme is always negotiated on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the agreed content, duration, and location of the training.
