She adds, \u201cWhen the leaders within the business recommended I apply for this program, I saw it as an important growth milestone to achieve something that I\u2019ve set out to do.

He says, \u201cHaving recently worked on a major project in Perth that changed a lot as time went on, this course will help provide me with a deeper level of understanding for the bigger picture at stake within these projects. The course will help me understand more about how and why decisions are made which will inevitably lead me to providing better solutions for our clients and the community.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>
