        "rendered": "<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Murata has collaborated with Aalto University to develop a tailored and uniquely comprehensive solution to meet Murata\u2019s needs for skilled personnel. The most recent example of this collaboration is the Lifewide Learning course package developed for the employees of Murata Finland. The collaboration also includes study paths all the way to master\u2019s and doctor\u2019s degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Lifewide Learning course package, launched in December 2022, is a new territory for both Murata and Aalto. Murata is the first company Aalto is collaborating with on this kind of tailored lifewide learning solution. In response to factors such as globalization, technological changes and demographic developments, lifewide learning has been included in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/okm.fi\/en\/continuous-learning-reform\">Government Program<\/a>&nbsp;of Finland, and its implementation will continue during the next government term. Universities have taken decisive steps to support Finnish society and businesses by building practices and opportunities for lifewide learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is a new territory for us and a good pilot for Aalto as well. We are also continuously developing methods for learning on the job,\u201d says&nbsp;<strong>Hanna-Riikka Myllym\u00e4ki<\/strong>, Director for Lifewide Learning Development and Partnerships at Aalto EE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aalto aims to make it easier for companies to find suitable courses for their employees from the wide range of courses offered by the university. Murata\u2019s course selection includes courses under themes such as artificial intelligence, robotics, machine learning, big data, industrial engineering and electronic engineering, as well as management and communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe course selection was based on Murata\u2019s needs. We glanced through the whole educational portfolio of Aalto and hand-picked the most suitable studies for our needs. We will update the course selection according to Aalto\u2019s current offering as well as the changing needs of our business,\u201d says&nbsp;<strong>Tuomas Nurmi<\/strong>, Senior HR Manager at Murata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Murata has been developing&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/muratafinland.com\/en\/blog\/muratas-study-paths-would-you-be-interested-in-getting-a-degree-while-working-full-time\/?lang=en\">study paths<\/a>&nbsp;with Aalto since 2020, starting with a path to a master\u2019s degree and later also to a doctor\u2019s degree. So far, seven Murata employees have been accepted for Aalto degrees: five for doctor\u2019s degrees and two for master\u2019s degrees. Murata does not pay a salary for the time spent studying for a master\u2019s degree, but graduates receive a remuneration for their degrees. The company also subsidizes course fees and the cost of learning materials. In addition to receiving the remuneration, doctoral students may also spend one working day per week on their studies.<\/p>",
