Education and capacity building globally
Reforming education systems and developing competences globally
We promote sustainable growth and well-being by reforming education systems and developing competences in collaboration with our partners in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
We at HAMK have expertise in developing both human resources and education systems and the learning environments formed around them. New learning solutions are being created from early childhood education to primary, secondary, vocational education, higher education and adult education.
Our strong practical expertise in various fields – such as bioeconomy, construction, entrepreneurship as well as health and well-being – are at the core of our operations. Digital solutions are developed and applied diversely in different learning environments.
