General principles guiding immigration policy of the Ministry of Education • Fostering good relation between different ethnic groups - two-way integration, measures targeted towards the original population • Taking into account the needs of immigrants within the functioning of regular services and systems - special targeted measures (special treatment, allocations) only as secondary options • Promoting the right of immigrants to their own language and culture • Equal treatment of immigrants regardless of the reasons for immigration • Efficient coordination of measures • Taking into account experiences of other countries

Guidelines in the field of education and research • Sufficient availability of Finnish/Swedish language teaching in all levels of education • Studies concerning multicultural issues for all teachers. More study places for teachers with immigrant background • Further development of recognition of knowledge • Efficient guidance and counselling services  immediate availability, focus on periods of transition (from one education level to the next) • Strengthening of education on internationalism and tolerance • Promotion of mobility (students, teachers, researchers)

  4. Adult education • Vocational basic or supplementary education • Upper secondary education • Liberal education (folk high schools, summer universities) • General language examination system  a prerequisite for citizenship (64 providers of which 23 are folk high schools) • Education of illiterate adults  cooperation between the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Employment and the Economy • Training of teachers: an ESF-funded common model shared by 5 universities and 2 polytechnics
