Testimonials“This course has enriched me with the multi-aspects of the business world. It is an eye-opening course. I certainly become stronger and gain substantial self confidence. Coming from an IT background, business is an unfamiliar territory for me. However, after this course, I am no longer afraid to discuss business problems with my colleagues, clients and even friends. Many thanks again for giving me this wonderful opportunity”

“The amount of time and effort that we have put in the course (especially in the project) is no easy task, but the rewards we get at the end- the knowledge, the skills and the friendships makes it all worth it!”

““The topics and the way the lectures are conducted are very refreshing. I gained a lot of knowledge from the lecturers and fellow students. One strong point of the module is the way the grouping was carried out. It has students from different faculty promoting a more varied class discussion.”
