Statement by the Finnish Union of University Professors on Completing a Degree through Open Higher Education

The Finnish Union of University Professors has issued a statement on the government proposal concerning the possibility of completing a degree through open higher education.

According to the Union, Finns must continue to have the opportunity to complete a tuition-free higher education degree. Allowing fee-paying degree studies through the Open University would be a step toward introducing tuition fees. The Union does not support this development.
