What advice do you have for new students?
On the online program—The program moves very quickly. The seven-week courses seem to fly by. There is little time for recovery. Get a good start and don’t let up. If you get behind, catching up can be very difficult.
In general—While the details of any business situation or decision are always important, being able to put a particular situation into perspective and understanding how the various components interact are critical in order to make the appropriate decision.
