The Global Certificate in Sustainable Urban Development at Stanmore School of Business was an eye-opener! I learned so much about urban sustainability, from green infrastructure to renewable energy. I particularly appreciated the focus on practical applications, such as designing sustainable public spaces, retrofitting existing buildings for energy efficiency, and integrating smart city technologies. The course materials were informative and up-to-date, making it easy to grasp complex concepts. While I wish there had been more opportunities for hands-on practice, I'm still very satisfied with the knowledge I gained and the insights I gained into this crucial field.
