The Postgraduate Certificate in School Counseling at Stanmore School of Business was a great experience for me. I liked how the course was structured, with a good balance of theoretical foundations and practical applications. The lessons on group counseling and crisis intervention were particularly helpful, as they gave me a lot of ideas for how to work with students in my own context. The course materials were mostly good, although I thought some of the readings could be more up-to-date. Still, I appreciated the effort the instructors put into making the content relevant and engaging. My only suggestion would be to add more opportunities for peer interaction and feedback. Overall, I'm glad I took the course and would recommend it to others looking to improve their counseling skills.

I found the Postgraduate Certificate in School Counseling at Stanmore School of Business to be a thoroughly enjoyable and enriching experience. The course content was well-organized and easy to follow, with clear learning objectives and engaging activities. I appreciated the focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion, as well as the attention to the unique challenges and opportunities of working in international school settings. The instructors were knowledgeable and responsive, and the course materials were generally of high quality. One area for improvement might be to include more opportunities for students to share their own experiences and insights, as this would help to foster a sense of community and collaboration. Nonetheless, I'm very satisfied with what I learned and would recommend this course to others interested in school counseling.
