There is a lot of support from tutors, from the online lecturers, and from the student support team, so there really are a lot of people helping you through the programme. Business School
The online experience was actually quite great for me because I could adjust my time flexibly, and stay in my hometown while getting a degree from London School of Business and Finance. Business School
Working at an investment bank and studying at the same time was quite tricky, but I soon learned that time management is key to making the whole process work for you. It was very rewarding to be able to combine my studies with my work, and also very useful because I was able to do research for my studies during my work hours. Business School
