Kandice

This course was highly recommended by regulatory colleagues and I would also recommend it to others. It is a perfect fit for those wanting to further their education at a reputable university while working full-time. As a distance learning student, I found the online content and weekend seminars to be helpful in providing interaction with the instructors and fellow students.
