The backend system of Metropolia's internal online service OMA will be updated in November

The version update will cause several downtimes on the different OMA desktops during the update weeks.

You should be prepared for outages in the weeks starting November 14. and 21. More information will be available towards the end of October.

The update will bring new and improved features to OMA, including:

  • accessibility of the student desktop
  • management of separate study modules and OPSs
  • report service
  • implementation planning
  • HOPS guidance
  • processing of eAHOT scores
  • resource planning and booking tool views
  • readiness for future implementation of the cross-study service

From the perspective of students and teachers, the old functionalities remain almost unchanged. The functionality of the general OMA desktop will remain unchanged even though the underlying system changes.

All changes will be announced in more detail on OMA and on the IT Services' website at a later stage.
