Hermien de Lange, one of the best-performing delegates, shared her excitement and recommended the course to anyone in project management, citing the excellent networking experiences and practical application of the course content. “It was hard work, weekends had to be given up, but at the end of the day, I think it’s really beneficial. I really enjoyed the lectures as well as the discussions that happened in class.”
Vongani Maluleke concurred that the programme was challenging although he did not think so in the beginning. “At first I thought it would be simple, but it was totally different. I had to think deep and do more research and be in constant communication with the lecturers to find out if what I was doing was correct or not.” He admitted, “at the end it was a nice challenge and I would encourage everyone to do it.”
