I recently completed the Executive Certificate in Geotechnical Engineering from Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was a worthwhile investment. As an engineer working in Egypt, I was looking for a course that would help me improve my understanding of geotechnical principles and their application in real-world projects. The course content was comprehensive and well-structured, with a good balance of theoretical and practical aspects. I found the lectures on rock mechanics and geotechnical instrumentation particularly useful, as they helped me develop a deeper understanding of the subject matter. While some of the course materials could be improved, overall I'm satisfied with the experience and would recommend it to others in the field.

I've just completed the Executive Certificate in Geotechnical Engineering from Stanmore School of Business, and I'm really pleased with the experience. As a geotechnical engineer working in Brazil, I was looking for a course that would help me improve my skills and knowledge in areas like soil behavior and foundation design. The course content was detailed and comprehensive, with a good focus on practical applications. I appreciated the opportunity to work on group projects and case studies, which gave me valuable experience and insights. The course materials were also well-organized and easy to access. While some of the lectures could be improved, overall I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others in the field. The only suggestion I have is to include more examples and case studies from Latin America, which would make the course more relevant to our region.
