The Certificado De Mestre Em Análise De Políticas Públicas (Avançado) at Stanmore School of Business was exactly what I needed to reach my professional goals. The modules on quantitative policy evaluation gave me the tools to design impact assessments for the housing initiative I lead at my municipality. I especially valued the hands‑on exercises with STATA and the real‑world case study on urban transit reform, which I could immediately apply to my work. The course materials – from the scholarly articles to the interactive dashboards – were up‑to‑date and highly relevant. Overall, the learning experience was rigorous yet supportive, and I feel fully equipped to advise senior officials on evidence‑based policy decisions.
Fiz o curso na Stanmore School of Business e adorei! Ele me ajudou a entender todo o ciclo de políticas públicas, da formulação à avaliação. Na prática, aprendi a usar planilhas avançadas para mapear indicadores sociais e a montar relatórios que impressionaram meus colegas no governo estadual. Os materiais são bem organizados, com vídeos curtos e leituras que realmente trazem exemplos do Brasil. Saí do curso confiante para propor mudanças na política de saúde da minha cidade e recomendo para quem quer aplicar o conhecimento direto no dia a dia.
Wow – this advanced public‑policy analysis program at Stanmore exceeded all my expectations! The blend of theory and simulation was exhilarating.

The course pack included cutting‑edge research papers and clear, multilingual slides that made complex concepts accessible. My final project, which evaluated the economic impact of a new transport tax, earned praise from my employer. I’m thrilled with the knowledge I gained and can’t wait to apply it across Europe.
