I finished the certificate a few months back and honestly felt delighted with how it all turned out. I also did a professional refresher course after that. The whole thing really helped me gain an international perspective. Looking forward to their next course whenever it drops.

I just finished the certificate last week. It was an intensive applied learning course, so I’m feeling pretty neutral about it all. Mostly, I wanted to experience life abroad and meet new people. That part still sounds good. I guess I’m a little excited about what’s next.

I felt less happy at first because it was a lot of information. As a learner who completed the program, I can say it really helps. My motivation was to travel and work at the same time, and this course made that possible. I am happy to learn this course, and I liked the structure.
