The Graduate Certificate in Disability Studies was a great experience for me. I liked how the course was structured, with a good balance of theoretical and practical knowledge. The module on disability and employment was really interesting, and I appreciated the opportunity to work on a group project that involved developing an inclusive hiring strategy for a fictional company. The course materials were mostly good, although I thought some of the readings could be more up-to-date. Still, I feel like I gained some valuable skills and knowledge that will help me in my career as a human resources manager.

Wow, just wow! The Graduate Certificate in Disability Studies at Stanmore School of Business was absolutely amazing! I was a bit skeptical at first, but the course completely exceeded my expectations. The instructors were so knowledgeable and passionate about the subject matter, and the course materials were incredibly engaging. I loved the module on disability and technology, which introduced me to some really cool assistive technologies that I hadn't heard of before. The best part was the final project, where we got to design and propose our own inclusive initiative - it was such a great opportunity to apply what we learned and be creative. I'm so grateful to have had this experience and can't wait to apply my new skills and knowledge in my work as a social entrepreneur!

I recently completed the Graduate Certificate in Disability Studies at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a thoroughly enjoyable and enriching experience. The course content was well-structured and comprehensive, covering a wide range of topics related to disability studies. I found the module on disability and policy to be particularly informative, as it provided a detailed analysis of the various policies and legislation that impact the lives of people with disabilities. The course materials were of high quality, and the instructors were knowledgeable and responsive to our questions and concerns. One area for improvement could be the addition of more interactive elements, such as discussions or group activities, to supplement the online lectures and readings. Nevertheless, I am satisfied with my learning experience and feel that the course has provided me with a solid foundation for further study and professional development in this field.
