The knowledge and learning journey were truly enjoyable. The faculty were certainly among the best I had. They had in-depth knowledge of the subject and made what were generally dry topics totally enriching and a pleasure to attend. I am certain that this would not have been possible if not for the meticulous effort put in by the team.
