I took the Global Certificate in International Development (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business, and it was a great learning experience. The course covered a wide range of topics, from sustainable development to human rights, and provided me with a deeper understanding of the complex issues faced by developing countries. I appreciated the case studies and group discussions, which helped me develop my critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, and the instructors were always available to answer questions. One thing that could be improved is the inclusion of more Latin American case studies, but overall, I'm happy with the course and would recommend it to others.
