We strive to arrange any kind of vocational training required on an individual basis. The studies can, depending on the goals and starting point, last from a few weeks to 3-4 years. They can be realized either within the frames of the Arla Institute, or if necessary in cooperation with other educational establishments and employers, or for example completely at another educational establishment. Rehabilitation and foundation courses Some of our students need to develop their functional skills and require rehabilitation before vocational training. If necessary we offer additional deep individual therapy with the help of outside experts.
Rehabilitation is continued if necessary during the vocational training.
The student is also free to use the services of the health care unit, the study councellors and the student hall. Vocational training The Arla Institute strives to arrange any kind of vocational training starting with the customer's needs. The Institute's own courses are based on a framework within which it is possible to realize very individual study programmes. Since the Arla Institute is the only centre in Finland which offers this course it is open to all young people. Annually there are about fifteen deafblind students at the Arla Institute.
