The content of the curricula are continuously developed and improved in cooperation with both students and workplaces.
The basis of all education offered at Humak is coaching pedagogy. Its central elements are workplace-based and collaborative learning as well as interaction. Students’ competencies and skills are built through classroom teaching as well as practical experiences, such as workplace projects and practical training periods.
