I found the online course extremely convenient, as I could complete modules at my own pace, within my schedule. The information was clear and concise with plenty of additional case studies. I was able to practically implement what I learned, which was of great assistance, as I am relatively new to my role in Economic Development. I can highly recommend this platform for anyone wanting a good foundation to promote FDI and Investment within their mandate.
