Due to updating information security Metropolia services will be periodically unavailable on Tue. 10.2. 16-22 p.m.
There will be a break of service on the wiki platform of Metropolia (http://wiki.metropolia.fi) on Monday February 9, 2015, at 4:00-4:30pm.
The reason for the break is the upgrading of the version of the software.
We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Beginning today Metropolia students and staff can download Office 365 ProPlus package for free. Students and staff have the right to install Office ProPlus on five devices. The programs are available for Windows and OSX computers as well as iPad.
Download instructions on the IT Services website. Before downloading Office ProPlus, the student and staff member must accept Metropolia Cloud Service Terms. Logging on the download page works the latest 2 hours after accepting the cloud services terms. Office 365 ProPlus is available for as long as the student is enrolled at Metropolia or until cessation of employment

Our original goal was to get Microsoft cloud services and the free Office version for students in the fall 2014.
Unfortunately, things were not as easy as we thought. We apologize for the delay.
The situation at the moment is this:
-we have the technology and the capability to synchronize student information to the cloud
-an exact schedule cannot be given yet due to the fact that we are waiting for some details from the lawyers concerning the synchronization of information to the cloud
-Metropolia Board of Governors authorizes President to sign a new Microsoft EES campus contract in mid-January
After these matters have been taken care of, we can publish the new service to students.
We will publish a bulletin in Tuubi and in the IT Services website just as soon as downloading Office is possible.
