Some testimonials of our students

"De verschillende workshops leerden me een aantal soft skills en gaven me heel wat tips die ik in het dagelijks leven kan gebruiken om doelen te zetten, meer gedaan te krijgen en tegenslagen te overwinnen. Naast de workshops leerde ik ook veel bij van de andere deelnemende studenten, die vaak een andere opleiding volgden. Daarbij kreeg ik dankzij de recepties na elke workshop de kans om deze medestudenten beter te leren kennen en tegelijkertijd te netwerken met de aanwezige bedrijven. De gratis pizza was de kers op de taart!"

"The International Organizing workshop was a valuable experience that improved my international project management skills. It was well structured, relevant and practically applicable. I would recommend this workshop to anyone interested in international business. During the workshop you will gain valuable knowledge and insights that will benefit your future career. So participating in this is definitely an opportunity not to be missed! "

"The consulting workshop track is a great way to get a taste of the consulting life. I noticed that it is accessible to any level in terms of prior knowledge which I found to be a big plus. The different workshops are given by different companies, this gave me a better view of both large and small consulting companies and what the pros and cons of both are. So I not only learned more about consulting, but also about my own preferences. All this in an environment with like minded students, with whom I could network after the workshop, makes for a great experience that I have only experienced at AFC."
