My Competency Path supports you in finding education and job opportunities that suit your skills and interests. Transferring your data between the competence profile of the Competency Path and the job applicant profile of Job Market Finland is easy and useful.

What is a competence profile and why should you make one?

The competence profile is created in My Competency Path. It helps you make your skills visible, set goals and make plans to achieve them. You can identify your competence and strengths based on your work and education history, interests and hobbies. In addition, you can receive suggestions for training and work tasks suitable to your skills and interests. You can try the service with different interests and find options that you have not previously considered.

Creating a competence profile is made easier by the fact that you can also import your education details directly from My Studyinfo to the competence profile. You can also import information from your CV in PDF form.
