Further information

HAMK students register for studies in Pakki at the time shown in the implementation plan. Students from other universities of applied sciences primarily enrol in Peppi/Pakki. The course information (campusonline.fi portal) contains a registration form for students who are not yet able to enrol in Peppi/Pakki. Students accepted to the course from other universities of applied sciences will receive an email after the registration period has ended, with instructions on how to activate their HAMK user IDs. Note! the message may be redirected to the spam folder. Open University students enrol via enrolment form that can be found on website (Applicants -> Open university -> Open studies) as well as the enrolment timetable. Student pays the course fee upon registration. HAMK’s Spark feedback system opens 7 days before the course/module ends and it stays open for 14 days after the end date. You may give course/module feedback via Pakki. A notification of the courses/modules (to whom you have registered)for which feedback can be given appears on the desktop. You will always receive a notification on the student desktop when a course/module is ready for feedback. You will receive a reminder in HAMK's e-mail on the end date of the implementation, if you have not already given feedback before. For more information on course/module feedback, see the student feedback page. Open University of Applied Sciences and CampusOnline students can provide course/module feedback via a browser at https://pakki.hamk.fi/spark. 25 study places reserved for HAMK students 50 study places reserved for CampusOnline students 25 study places reserved for Open Studies students
