PulseGO!-kampanja on käynnistynyt! Olemme muuttaneet yli 50 opintojaksoa maksuttomiksi elokuusta vuoden 2025 loppuun asti.

Xamk Pulsen avoin ammattikorkeakoulu haluaa luoda tasa-arvoisia mahdollisuuksia opiskeluun, jotta  jatkuva oppiminen olisi saavutettavissa eri elämäntilanteissa, myös taloudellisesti. Opiskelu avoimessa voi olla alku uudelle uralle, syvennetylle osaamiselle tai itseluottamukselle lähteä liikkeelle.

Madallamme kynnystä opintojen aloittamiseen tarjoamalla maksuttomia koulutuksia ilman edeltävyysehtoja tai pääsykokeita. Kokeile miltä opiskelu tuntuu, nyt siihen on hyvä tilaisuus. Valitse sinua kiinnostavia opintoja ja ilmoittaudu mukaan. Opinnot voi aloittaa nonstoppina, ja niitä voi suorittaa joustavasti verkossa omaan tahtiin.

PulseGO!-kampanjan opintojaksot on merkitty nimellä PulseGO!, ja ne löytyvät myös koulutuskalenterista avainsanalla PulseGO! Kampanjaan kuuluvien opintojen lisäksi löydät koulutuskalenteristamme myös muita mielenkiintoisia ja ajankohtaisia koulutuksia.
