It's helpful. Welcome and Thank you John
I’m glad that you liked! 😊
Value-added information for international student bro John. Thank you for sharing the education information. Please look forward to sharing edu info.
Thank you very much! I will continue to share information about study opportunities in Finland. It seems that my followers are interested in the topic.
Thanks for this information John
Thanks!
Certainly! A couple of schools in Finland are planning to offer English-language programs. One will likely open applications this spring or summer, requiring basic Finnish skills. It will later expand to offer a total of six programs. Another school is introducing a new English-language trainee, welcoming international applicants, expected to start within the next 1-2 years.
Thank you! for your information..
You’re welcome! 😊
Valued and treasured information ❤
Thank you for your kind words! Your feedback inspires me to create more videos for you all. Feel free to share the videos and the channel as much as you like. The potential for growth helps me continue maintaining and further developing the channel. This allows me to cover the channel's expenses for software.
Hey John, thank you very much. I’m Bright from Ghana

tHANKS SO MUCH.. HOPE DEPENDANTS IS ALLOWED
Could you clarify what "depants" refers to? If it includes your spouse or children, you'll need sufficient funds to support them for residence permits. Another scenario is if your spouse plans to study in Finland too. Note that a study permit and a residence permit are different, and a study permit alone doesn't guarantee residence if the necessary funds, approximately 6,720 euros for a year, aren't in your account.
@johnofFinland I am a new subscriber! Thank you for your informative videos. Yes, continue to put out this kind of videos where you are a valid resource of information on education in Finland available to foreigners and non EU applicants.
Hello, thank you for your message. I will indeed continue to provide free vocational training programs that are open to everyone. Currently, such programs are only available in a few schools and select fields.
Additionally, I will offer higher education courses going forward; however, these will incur charges for non-EU and EEA citizens. On the other hand, higher education courses taught in Finnish and Swedish are free for students of all nationalities.
It is possible to start with a vocational qualification and subsequently pursue higher education in Finnish or Swedish at no cost. This process generally takes time, but some individuals have a knack for quickly mastering a new language. Therefore, it is not entirely impossible if one is sufficiently passionate.
@@JohnofFinland291 Wow! that's really interesting. So after a vocational study (non EU) one can apply for a higher education at a university or UAS at no cost? for as long as resident permit is still valid, correct?
Yes that’s right!
@ItsStrawberryShortCake Student studying in programmes taught in Finnish or Swedish are not required to pay fees regardless of their nationality.
Fees will be charged from students from outside the EU or European Economic Area (EEA) studying towards bachelor or master level degrees in languages other than Finnish or Swedish at universities of applied sciences (UAS) and universities.
@@JohnofFinland291 got it, that's for higher education. But if I'd study another vocational program for free - is that possible?
Hello John, thank you for the video, i am Fred from Kenya.
Hi Fred, glad you liked the video and welcome to my channel. Here in Finland, we have several people from Kenya working as practical nurses, registered nurses, and even a few as doctors.
@@JohnofFinland291Hi John also from kenya have you seen nurse assistants or cna from kenya kindly give us where we can apply legitimately.Thank you for your videos
@@njerination Check out my latest video, ‘Discover Career Opportunities in Åland, Finland - Work, Live, and Learn.’ Perhaps a Lapland season video could help too. There are a few websites where you can generally find any kind of job in Finland.
Well informed
Thank you so much! You watched and listened to the video very attentively and calmly. 🙏🏻
Thank you Sir
You’re welcome! "I wish you luck and success!
Very clear
Thank you my mentor! 👌
Thanks very much
Hey John! Thanks for the information. I actually applied for cook program, vamia. Pls wish me well that i get selected.
Hello, thank you for your message! I wish you luck and success. Vaasa is a beautiful city. Also consider following other schools to improve your chances.
My name is Iddrisu from Ghana, aside from vamia, is there any other school that are accepting foreign students or international students?
@user-fq5xp8mk8k "Hello dear friend, were you able to watch the entire video peacefully to the end? You'll find the answer on the video. If needed, use automatic English subtitles. 😉
Should you be fortunate enough to secure a study placement, let's try to meet in Helsinki, even if it's just at the airport! If that's okay for you?
John I love what you do ,do you have any vocational training in Human Resources in Finland ?
Pls when is the next opening for waiter, waitress or cook? Can u help with the application
Hello,
The purpose of my channel is to share information about various educational and employment opportunities. At least for now, I have not directly assisted in application processes.
The application process for vocational schools is very straightforward, and by following the schools’ instructions, you can complete the application independently. You can also get more information about different schools and their application deadlines by watching my videos related to vocational education.
Let’s see if I can offer help with application processes later on, if my channel gains more followers and viewers.
Sir please can i come to Finland with my family on vacational study if i have enough proof of fund for them and secondly sir please is getting job easy in Finland as an international student. Thanks. Please 🙏 kindly reply me
Getting a job is not easy for an international student. It depends on what you are willing to do and what your previous education and work experience are. Additionally, it is generally easier to find a job in the Helsinki metropolitan area. In other parts of Finland, it is more difficult but possible. In smaller cities, it can be very difficult to find a job.
You can bring your family to Finland, but your salary and savings in your account must also cover your family. So, you need more savings and income the more family members you have in your household. If I remember correctly, you also need to apply for a residence permit for your family members in Finland.
Hi John, can I pliz know which school has medical assistant course, I would like to travel to Finland for this course
Hi! Actually, there is no such degree in Finland. The closest equivalent is the qualification for a practical nurse. The video contains all the information and all the options. Did you have the opportunity to watch the video carefully?
This might be the closest training to what you were looking for.
To become a care assistant, one typically undergoes vocational training at a secondary education institution by completing a program based on modules from the Vocational Qualification in Social and Health Care (practical nurse).
The program entails 60 competence points and usually spans about one year.
However, it should be noted that this is a training program, not a formal qualification.
The training is available in Finnish and Swedish.
Helsinki business college isn’t for foreigners because you have to write entry exams physically
Thank you for your message! I contacted Helsinki Business College before making the video, and according to the information I received, interviews and tests will be conducted online. I am referring specifically to the English-language "Vocational Qualification in Business" program, as I mentioned in the video.
I apologize if you or I have received incorrect information.
@@JohnofFinland291is it free please?
@toriennadi711 Hello dear friend, did you carefully watch the video and check the schools' websites? All the information can be found there.
Any school for masters ? Any scholarships?
In nearly all universities in Finland, you can study for a bachelor's and master's degree in English. Scholarships or grants are available, and each university has slightly different offerings. I will make a video about them at some point. Thank you for your request. Currently, I have only one video about a university of applied sciences and the master's degrees available there. The application period has already passed, but the video might still be of some help to you.
@@JohnofFinland291 please let me know as soon as you upload it. The ones I check is asking for tuition fee for masters
@@seraphinaeboka6409 University education is not free for citizens of non-EU countries. You will have to pay for it, and you might be able to get some of this money back later. I cannot make a video about 100% free university education, as the rules change every year. Tuition fees in Finland are comparatively affordable internationally, generally ranging from 5,000 to 15,000 euros per semester. In some years, exceptionally talented students have been able to study at various universities on a 100% scholarship.
Can you help me out with the application process?
Hi, do you mean Vamia's application process?
@@JohnofFinland291pls help me with the application process. I am looking for a waiter, chef or cook courses
I have already answered this question, but I will provide the information once again.
