What did the course bring you from a professional point of view?
It has helped me grow in terms of better career opportunities.
The course is adapted to the professional world, and was really focused on practical knowledge rather than just theory. It hence helped me understand the core matter of the subjects done.
How did it benefit you on a personal level?

I know that hardship pays eventually and the feeling of being satisfied when a task is accomplished is the aim for doing something complex. I have developed stress management skills in various aspects, be it at work or even when it comes to studies and personal life.
