The Advanced Certificate in Disability Studies was a great experience for me. I liked how the course was structured, with a mix of theoretical and practical lessons. I gained some useful skills, like how to do needs assessments and create individualized support plans. The instructors were knowledgeable and supportive, and the discussions with my classmates were really helpful. One thing that stood out to me was the emphasis on cultural sensitivity and awareness - it really made me think about my own biases and how I can be a better ally. The course materials were mostly good, although some of the readings could be more up-to-date. Still, I'm happy with what I learned and would recommend the program to others.
