I was a bit skeptical about taking an online course, but the 'Power System Protection and Control' course at Stanmore School of Business really delivered. As a power systems engineer from Egypt, I was looking to improve my skills in protection and control systems, and this course helped me achieve that goal. The course content was well-structured and easy to follow, with a good balance of theoretical and practical knowledge. I appreciated the examples of protection schemes and control systems used in real-world applications, which helped me understand the concepts better. The course materials were also very relevant and up-to-date, which was great. My only suggestion would be to include more interactive elements, such as quizzes or discussions, to make the course more engaging. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others in the field.
