Testimonials for:
School of Business
"I chose Cosmic Institute's School of Business, over other top business schools, because of the reputation of its internationally recognized degrees among employers, combined with the willingness of students, facutly and the community to contribute to our experience. Cosmic changed my preconceptions about Business studies. For me, what differentiated Cosmic from others was it being both hard-hitting and personal. The experience extends beyond one year of course work. The institute moves on a dime, embraces change, hires great professors, and constantly evolves a curriculum that prepares Cosmic-VanUW MBAs to be world-class business leaders."
"I think I have learnt much more than I expected. The professors are so knowledgeable, and way they teach motivates you to study more. I firmly believe that study at Cosmic is one of the stepping stones to be a successful international businessman. Moreover, what you can get from Cosmic is not only knowledge but also international friendship. The way we interacted despite being geographically dispersed across the globe, it was so exciting to work in a truly 'international' class."
"I found the lecturers to be committed and approachable, and many are considered international experts in their field. You offers a great learning atmosphere with an impressive teaching standard and first-class facilities at an affordable cost. All this provides me with the background, skills and confidence to obtain an excellent job in an uncertain employment market."
"Online courses are very helpful to people like me who want to change their career but have to work 40 hours a week and can only attend schools nights and weekends."

"I benefited a lot from the intense training. The lecturers and discussions opened up my thought and mind. Nice staff, excellent faculty and friendly participants make the it all a wonderful experience."
"The faculty, staff and students successfully promote rigorous thinking about difficult and emotionally wrenching topics in an atmosphere that is intellectually challenging but not intimidating."

School of Technology
"Cosmic provided me with an effective combination of a sound theoretical base and "real" technical skills without having me to compromise my work or social commitments. In particular, I found the online group project to be a great learning experience, giving me first-hand experience with the software development lifecycle in a team environment and introducing me to client liaison entirely online. The project management courses have also proven useful when I have been required to develop project plans and schedules."
"I am currently working as a Business Developer for a consulting firm. During my degree, I specialized in Information Systems, and most of my electives were chosen from the business domain. I found my thesis topic of business process modeling to be both interesting and relevant, and the experience prepared me well for my first task in business, which was to undertake a major review of the workflow module in one of our products."
"Thank you for providing us with online courses. They allow me to continue working as well as to attend school. I also like the self-paced atmosphere and the ability to do work at my leisure."

"I love the flexibility of learning and working at home through online courses. It saved me a lot of time in not having to travel. I work at home on my farm, and needed the flexible schedule to do my schoolwork. I would recommend this to anyone who wishes to take a course or program. It is so convenient and flexible."
"Me, as a working mother, without online courses, I wouldn't be able to earn my degree. When courses aren't available through the 'traditional' class rooms, on-line courses are wonderful alternatives."
“I particularly enjoyed the one-on-one responses from my instructor. I was able to interact directly with the other students in the class, and respond to their opinions, comments and even assignments. That would definitely not be possible without constant support from the friendly staff at Cosmic Institute.”

"Career Development Courses has made a difference in many lives. Read below to find out what past participants had to say.
"I would enthusiastically recommend the CDC training programs to any company seeking to develop or reinforce HR competence at any level in the organization."
"The CDC had the challenge of putting together a program which would meet the goals and at the same time keep this melting pot of managers attentive.The outcome was a complete success.Cosmic had accomplished our goal of providing the management staff with an excellent development program.I still keep the books provided by the program in my office as reference literature. We thank the Cosmic Institute for a customized program that far exceeded our expectations."
"The programs were specially designed to address our specific needs and requirements. I am very satisfied with the customization and professionalism of the programs as well as the specialized service that CDC at Cosmic Institute provided."

"I've always had satisfactory educational experiences with Cosmic Institute and I've sent most of the office staff to be trained there. My boss complimented me on the choice; his class experience was very positive. CDC is our first choice for training new employees."
"We wish to thank you for your part in making the classes a huge success. The classes were all presented professionally and were very interesting and informative. Everything went smoothly and we were treated royally."
"When I was asked to approve the expenditure of training dollars for yet another program for some of our officers, I did so feeling certain that this experience would be no different from past efforts. How wrong I was! Very early in the series, I heard class participants engaging their colleagues in conversation related to the subject; people were happily doing their homework in preparation for next class. No one was making excuses as to why they needed to drop out, and I was thanked many times for making the experience available."
" Your Human Resources program opened up a new field for me and I have grown in my career as a result. I have recommended the program to several in the past and will continue to do so in the future."
"Your programs at CDC gave me the way to visualize the potential for business through commercial integration with countries across the globe."
