I found the 'Business Rates Law and Legislation' course to be a solid introduction to the subject. As a Japanese businessman, I was interested in learning more about the UK's business rates system and how it compares to our own. The course provided a good overview of the key concepts and principles, and I appreciated the detailed explanations of the different types of business rates and how they're calculated. The course materials were clear and concise, and I liked the fact that they included examples from different industries. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more international perspectives, but overall I'm happy with the course and feel like I gained some useful knowledge.
