Teaching methods

Studies start by establishing a team enterprise of appr. 15 - 20 students. Everyone has passed the preparatory courses of the first semester. The students start to work in their team company, find information, learn, read professional literature, and participate in seminars.

There are almost no traditional lectures or exams. Learning is based on doing. The studies consist of team meetings, learning cells, business development, independent information research, and projects. Projects are about i.e. marketing, communications, sales, event organizing, graphical design, project management, innovation, and ict. Nothing forbids implementing projects that your team is interested in (as long as they are legal).

Project studies and practical placements are carried out in customer projects.

Learning materials

At Proakatemia we value reading. You may choose your readings according to your professional interests and current needs from the book lists, or based on recommendations from coaches or other teampreneurs. You'll publish essays in the Bank of Essays. The content is applied to projects, to the team's business and self-development - theory to practice.

Student workload

1 cr = 27 hours of work.

Content scheduling

Projects go on during the studies, according to sales and customers' needs.

Completion alternatives

Practical placement is conducted by working on customer projects of your team company. Project study alternatives may be discussed with your coach.

Practical training and working life cooperation

All the projects have customer(s) and the work is done for the customer or according to the negotiated deal.
