  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • It was an eye-opening experience, got to know a lot about financial terms and different divisions. Besides, participation in the workshops allowed to have a clearer image of the skills needed in the financial world and were adaptable to my degree.
