Abstract

In Finland, teachers’ pedagogical education is required at all levels from kindergarten to polytechnics except at the university level.

Pedagogical training has organised systematically since 1990s and at the moment most universities have preparedness to offer pedagogical education for all new university teachers, and also to the permanent teachers, who are willing to participate.
