List of training materials
FIN-CLARIN offers several methodological courses online every year. The courses are designed especially for graduate and postgraduate students in Humanities, Social Sciences and Behavioural Sciences who use research materials or corpora containing text or speech.
Registered students from all Finnish universities can participate for free. If space allows, some participants can also be accepted from universities outside Finland without charge. The courses are offered via the Moodle learning environment of the University of Helsinki. It is possible to log in directly with the user credentials of any member organization of the HAKA and eduGAIN federations. Please try to log in to Moodle well in advance. If you discover that you have no access, temporary user accounts are available for course participation upon timely request from the teacher.
In case you are not officially affiliated with any university as a student or staff member, it may be possible for you to participate in some of the courses for a fee as a Open University student. For Open University courses, further instructions can be found on the course page via the University of Helsinki (see the links below).
