''I really enjoy the MMA program! It is very informative and thought-provoking. Getting to discuss issues with my peers really helps consolidate the information. The biggest topic I took from the training was to look at the marketing from the purchaser’s perspective. The interaction with others gives a very different viewpoint on topics which makes you rethink your marketing plan.''

The practical nature of the course allowed us to apply learnings to real-life scenarios within the class. By applying them once, it was easier to apply them again in our working lives. Working and sharing insights with other participants have allowed us to share experience and learn from each other which is always helpful.''
