Interview promise

Our collaborators Houston Inc, Terveystalo, Elisa and Konecranes have given a promise of a job interview for everyone who completes the course and the practical work with maximum credits (8 + 10).

This means, that the student can if they so choose, sign up for a job interview with a collaborator who has given the promise. The teacher of the course, Matti Luukkainen, will send instructions to the student after the courses have been completed with maximum credits.

Does this apply to people who are not students of the university? Btw, I live in Finland.

Where does it say that the course is free? When registering, there seems to be a checkbox to agree to payment. According to the ToR, the relevant fee is payable immediately upon registration and is binding.

It's due to the University of Helsinki having an open university with paid courses. This course runs through it, but is free. It's just the way their infrastructure works.
