I found the Graduate Certificate in Family Law to be a well-structured and informative course. As a Danish lawyer, I appreciated the international perspective on family law, which broadened my understanding of the subject. The course materials were of high quality, with a good balance of theoretical foundations and practical applications. I particularly enjoyed the modules on international family law and the challenges of cross-border family disputes. While some topics were more engaging than others, overall I'm happy with the knowledge and skills I gained. One area for improvement could be more interactive elements, such as discussions or group work, to enhance the learning experience.
