Key features of the service

Educational offering

For the first time, learners can browse and compare the open offerings of higher education institutions in one service. The Opin.fi website also includes higher education institutions’ offerings not rated for study credits, such as webinars and podcasts.

My learning

Once the learner has identified themselves in the service, they will have access to a personalised “My learning” view. It allows users to manage their educational history and contact information, interests and recommended settings.

Guidance and recommendations

The principles of guidance and recommendations at Opin.fi help learners find the educational offering that suits just them. The service desk provides help and support if necessary.

Analytics

When learners use the service, it generates data. Analytics help higher education institutions learn what kind of content learners are interested in, for example. This will enable higher education institutions to develop their educational offerings to better meet learners’ needs.

Content pages

The pages for different themes and organisations offer learners inspiration and more information about higher education institutions and their offerings.

Registration

Learners can register for the offered education by going to the linked service of each higher education institution.
