National learner IDs and personal details updated in Sisu

In addition to the learner ID, the update of personal details covers the first and last names, home municipality, nationality and mother tongue of the student.

National learner ID information has been updated as a batch run in Sisu on Monday, 12 May 2025. In addition to the learner ID, the update of personal details covers the first and last names, home municipality, nationality and mother tongue of the student.

The learner ID and student personal information are updated during a batch run provided that:

  • the student has a valid right to study and their attendance information is in order if attendance information is required for the right to study
  • the student’s personal identity code, first name, last name and nationality are recorded in Sisu
  • the student is not marked as deceased or their right to study has not been inactivated in Sisu by those in charge of the learner ID register. 

The majority of recently admitted students already have their learner ID in Sisu. New students have received their learner IDs through Studyinfo or the KOSKI service.

Students’ opportunities for language learning to expand from autumn 2026

Founded in 2025, KiePe – Network for Language Centre Pedagogy, Teaching and Research – will broaden the range of language courses available to students at universities in the Helsinki metropolitan area. The KiePe network, composed of the University of Helsinki, Aalto University, the University of the Arts Helsinki, and Hanken School of Economics, will offer their students the chance to take elective language courses at any of the network universities in the future.
Students will be able register for courses via the cross-institutional studies service (RIPA) from autumn 2026. By autumn 2028, the study paths of the network universities will be harmonised to some extent, which will make cross-institutional studies even easier.
Students wishing to take language courses outside their home university can register for language courses offered by the network universities through the cross-institutional studies service and view the course offerings on the universities’ websites. More detailed information about the course offering and registration practices will be provided in August 2026.
