The Global Certificate in Arms Trade Sustainability and Ethics at Stanmore School of Business was a valuable learning experience for me. As a professional working in the defense industry, I needed to update my knowledge of the arms trade and its sustainability and ethics. The course provided a comprehensive overview of the subject, covering the legal, economic, and social aspects of the arms trade. I appreciated the interactive elements of the course, such as the discussion forums and group assignments, which allowed me to engage with my peers and learn from their experiences. The course materials were well-structured and easy to follow, and the instructors were responsive to our questions and concerns. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more case studies from emerging economies, such as Brazil. Nevertheless, I would recommend this course to anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the arms trade and its sustainability and ethics.
