On this page:

A study counsellor will, in cooperation with your coordinating teacher, support you throughout your studies. You can contact your study counsellor about various matters related to your studies. The study counsellor will guide you when you advance in your studies, choose between combined general and vocational upper secondary education or path studies, and apply for further studies, for example. Study counsellors can also help you if you have problems with the progress of your studies or if you are considering interrupting your studies temporarily or leaving school completely.

A study counsellor can help you if you

  • have questions about your studies,
  • are interested in vocational upper secondary school studies or path studies,
  • need help solving problems in the progress of your studies,
  • are considering interrupting your studies temporarily or leaving school completely, or
  • need guidance for applying for further studies.

The study counsellor can provide you with

  • guidance appointments held either in person or via Teams that you can book for times fitting your schedule and
  • time and guidance for going over something important to you.

How to make an appointment with a study counsellor

Contact your study counsellor by phone, text message or email or by visiting their workstation at the office. You can arrange an appointment for a time suitable for you both.

If you need to send confidential or encrypted email to Omnia and do not have an email account provided by Omnia, you can safely send your message at the address smail.omnia.fi.
