I took the Graduate Certificate in Hand Therapy (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business, and it was a great experience! The course content was really detailed, and I liked how it covered both the theoretical and practical aspects of hand therapy. I'm from Brazil, and it was awesome to learn about different approaches and techniques used in other countries. The instructors were knowledgeable, and the online platform was easy to use. I gained a lot of practical knowledge, especially in terms of assessment and treatment of common hand and wrist conditions. One thing that could be improved is the discussion forum - sometimes it took a while to get responses from the instructors. Overall, I'm happy with the course, and I think it's a good option for anyone looking to specialize in hand therapy.
