You will get to develop skills needed in working life and living independently and familiarise yourself with working life. Our coaching point is located in Maunula, but we also operate a lot outside the coaching point, so you will be practising independence skills in other learning environments as well.
Our coaching is provided on weekdays at 9.00–14.30. The day programme of your group will start after a morning info assembly. We have lunch together at around 10.30. After lunch, we return to our groups.
We have a coffee break at around 14.00, after which we will assemble before the activities end to discuss the events of the day.
