The Voucher for Finnish Language Training may be granted to clients of Turku Employment and Business Services who need Finnish language training to strengthen their language skills. The training is intended for individuals who are no longer eligible for integration training.

Training funded through the voucher may be provided by institutions such as folk high schools, adult education centres, workers’ institutes, and summer universities. The training offered by a service provider must support the learning of Finnish and help participants, for example, in their studies, working life, and everyday interactions.
