Occupational profiles of graduates with examples

Ensihoidon kehittämisen ja johtamisen tutkinto antaa vahvan osaamisen toimia ensihoidon kehittäjänä ja uudistajana, asiantuntijana, yrittäjänä sekä esimies- ja johtotehtävissä nyt ja tulevaisuudessa. Tutkinto mahdollistaa urakehityksen ja uudistaa työelämää tietoperustan sekä tutkimus- ja kehittämisosaaminen myötä. Tavoitteena on, että opiskelija osaa johtaa ja kehittää ensihoidon palvelujärjestelmiä sekä toteuttaa ensihoidon palvelutason määrittelyä erilaisten sairastumis- ja onnettomuusriskien analysointien avulla. Lisäksi opiskelija osaa toimia erilaisissa ensihoidon asiantuntija- ja esimiestehtävissä sekä johtaa ensihoitopalvelun operatiivisia ja moniviranomaisyhteistyötilanteita.
Opiskelija voi hankkia osaamisen julkisten organisaatioiden työyhteisöjen päivittäisjohtamisen kehittämiseen muuttuvissa toimintaympäristöissä. Opetuksessa ovat sisältöinä tutkimus-, kehittämis- ja innovaatiotoiminnan opinnot sekä sosiaali- ja terveysalan johtamisen yhteistä tietoperustaa rakentavat opinnot, syventävät opinnot sekä vapaasti valittavat opinnot.
Opinnot rakentuvat Metropolian oppijan polun viitekehykseen, jossa keskeisiä
ydinasioita ovat työelämälähtöinen osaaminen, kehittämis-, innovaatio- ja tutkimustoiminnan tutkiva oppiminen ja kehittäminen, kansainvälisyys, elinikäinen oppiminen ja monialaisuus. Opiskelijat edustavat työelämää ja heillä on vähintään kolmen vuoden työkokemus koulutuksen alkaessa. Opiskelijat hyödyntävät aiempaa asiantuntemustaan ja työelämäyhteyttään opintojen aikana sekä luovat asiantuntijaverkostoja opiskelijoiden, korkeakoulun omien ja ulkopuolisten kouluttajien sekä alumnien kautta. Opinnoissa opiskelijat kehittyvät itsearvioinnissa ja itsensä ja muiden johtamisessa sekä kansainvälisissä ja kansallisissa viestintä- ja vuorovaikutustaidoissa.
Kansainvälisyys toteutuu esimerkiksi ulkomaalaisten vierailijaluentojen, kv- matkojen ja - vaihtojen sekä monialaisten kansainvälisten opintojen muodossa. Ylempään ammattikorkeakoulututkintoon johtavien opintojen tavoitteena on antaa opiskelijalle työelämän kehittämisen edellyttämät laajat ja syvälliset tiedot sosiaali- ja terveydenhuollosta sekä tarvittavat teoreettiset tiedot vaativissa asiantuntija- ja johtamistehtävissä tai yrittäjänä toimimista varten. Opetuksessa painotetaan myös työelämässä vaadittavan hyvän viestintä- ja kielitaidon kehittymistä.
Metropolia Ammattikorkeakoulusta ylempään ammattikorkeakoulututkintoon valmistuneen opiskelijan osaamista kuvataan kansallisen viitekehyksen (NQF 7, National Qualifications Framework) ja Ammattikorkeakoulujen rehtorineuvoston Arene ry:n suositusten mukaisesti.
