The Pandemic Preparedness and Planning course at Stanmore School of Business was really helpful in giving me a solid understanding of the key concepts and principles. I liked how the course was structured, with each module building on the previous one to create a cohesive narrative. The instructors were knowledgeable and provided plenty of examples to illustrate the points they were making. One thing that stood out to me was the discussion on supply chain management during a pandemic - it was fascinating to learn about the challenges and opportunities in this area. While I felt that some of the course materials could be updated to reflect more recent developments, overall I was happy with the course and would recommend it to others looking to learn about pandemic preparedness.

I took the Pandemic Preparedness and Planning course at Stanmore School of Business to enhance my skills in emergency management, and I'm glad I did. The course provided a thorough overview of the concepts and principles underlying pandemic preparedness, with a focus on practical application. I found the course materials to be well-organized and easy to follow, with plenty of opportunities for discussion and reflection. One area that I found particularly useful was the section on crisis communication - it was helpful to learn about the different strategies and tactics for communicating effectively during a pandemic. While I would have liked to see more Canadian-specific examples and case studies, overall I was satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others looking to learn about pandemic preparedness.
