Marketing Manager, Hӧganӓs AB

Coming into this class I was somewhat skeptical, having never taken such a programme online. Right off the bat my perceptions were changed. I found the content not only interesting but extremely useful. My fellow participants from all over the world contributed immensely to the learning experience, making the programme better than any in-class setting. The learning experience I have gained has certainly enhanced my understanding of the subject matter, and will definitely apply to my work. Furthermore, the support, when needed, was always there. [I can] highly recommend this programme and the experience that goes with it!
