''I am currently a stay-at-home mom, with approximately 7 years of prior work experience in the oil & gas industry but felt the need to expand my horizons and knowledge to become employable again. Also, I wanted to show my kids that education is important for success and that you should never stop learning, an attribute I want for them.
Besides being internationally recognised, the programme structure uses real-world examples where examinations and assessments challenge you to critically analyse situations for application in the business environment.
I studied my ABE qualification at CTS College of Business & Computer Science Ltd.
Having internationally recognised accreditations impresses employers it shows that your knowledge is not just localised to the Caribbean environment, but you bring a comprehensive understanding of how things function and current trends of practice.
I‘m currently pursuing my Bachelors in Business Administration at University of Hertfordshire
I loved the flexibility of the ABE programme for paced learning for individuals who are new to tertiary education as well as accommodating to those with business and family obligations or people like me who haven’t studied for years. It makes the transition seamless, as though you’ve never stopped learning.
I have started looking at the world differently through a more critical and analytical perspective of interactions. These can help me navigate potential work environments I encounter.
My advice for a successful study is that it’s important to plan ahead and spend extra time perusing the extensive reading materials that are available on the ABE website. Utilising the guidance on the website proves very beneficial during assignments. Never be afraid to ask questions to your lecturers.
I plan to pursue a career as a Data Analyst my knowledge and skills acquired through ABE can guide my path towards this goal as I continue to expand my knowledge and work experiences to achieve this goal.''
