Hear from Our Alumni
“The program is a great balance of theory and practical learning as well as organizational visits and tours of innovative centers. Since the completion of the program, my views on digital have changed. I am much clearer on the many ways to define ‘digital.’ The pace of change is so fast that the old ways won't last in the future, and therefore, being open to a whole new paradigm is key.”
