The program is really valuable to me, not only from the subject matter
The program is really valuable to me, not only from the subject matter that we're studying, but also the chance to apply these ideas and the techniques that we're learning to actual problems. And so, the chance to apply what I'm learning to the problems that I'm encountering at work is a huge benefit to me.

So far, this program has actually helped me tremendously because it is in the area where it is upcoming and in an industry which is highly unregulated, which is the medical aesthetics and wellness industry. And with the knowledge that I've gained here, I'm going to bring some regulations and, at the same time, enhance the productivity of the business in this area.
