I found the Graduate Certificate in Special Education at Stanmore School of Business to be a well-structured and informative course. The content was detailed and covered a wide range of topics, from autism spectrum disorder to assistive technology. I appreciated the opportunities to engage with my peers and instructors through discussions and group work. The course materials were relevant and up-to-date, with many useful resources and references. One area for improvement could be the addition of more local case studies or examples, as some of the content felt a bit too Western-centric. Nonetheless, I'm satisfied with what I learned and feel more confident in my ability to support students with special needs in my role as a teacher.
