What Tieturi does

Tieturi is a Finnish ICT and project management training provider operating as Tieturi Oy, a private limited company headquartered at Keilaranta 1 A, 02150 Espoo, Finland. Founded in 1983, the company maintains a catalog of over 1,000 open training courses spanning AI, cloud services (Azure, AWS), cybersecurity, software development, IT infrastructure, data and digital business, ITIL, project management methodologies, Agile/Scrum, product management, and requirements specification and testing. Tieturi is an official certification training partner for ITIL, PRINCE2, IPMA, ISTQB, AWS, Azure, Microsoft, Red Hat, SAFe, and ISO/IEC 27001, with exam facilitation rights granted by the issuing bodies. The firm operates without proprietary technology platforms and has no public or partner-facing API; delivery occurs through in-person sessions at the Espoo headquarters, remote delivery via Teams and virtual platforms, and hybrid formats.

Tieturi generates revenue across five documented streams. Open training courses and certification preparation generate one-time fee revenue from public registration, with group-booking discounts (10% for 3+ attendees). Tailored/customer-specific training solutions are sold through enterprise direct sales with dedicated account managers as professional services engagements. The Training Card (Koulutuskortti) is an organization-specific subscription providing centralized access to the Professio Group portfolio on an annual billing cadence. Professio+ is an all-in-one monthly subscription combining digital content, live learning, events, and a personal AI Learning Coach. A partnership with UK-based QA additionally distributes QA-authored courses via the "Attend from Anywhere" platform for remote enterprise learners. Pricing is pay-as-you-go for one-time courses and subscription for recurring products, with cancellation penalties tiered by course length and web-based webinars offered free of charge.

Tieturi serves ICT professionals and specialists, project managers and team leaders, and organizations (including public-sector buyers such as Palkeet) undertaking digital transformation; named enterprise customers include ABB IEC LV Motors Vaasa, Fellowmind (under multi-year partnership since 2019), ASIA ry, and Piceasoft. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales for tailored corporate programs, self-service website purchase for public courses, and ecosystem reach via the parent Professio Group (which also contains Professio B2B Events & Trainings and MIF Management Institute of Finland). Tieturi is ISO 9001 certified (Kiwa Inspecta) and operates from a LEED Platinum-certified office in Keilaniemi, Espoo. The firm employs 51–100 people and serves as part of a group that collectively reaches 25,000+ professionals annually through 2,000+ events and trainings.
