“It is great to see how the integration of the CIMA syllabus into the management accounting course has provided students with the relevant skillset to thoroughly analyse a business case and present different scenarios” commented Bruce Gahir, Associate Head of the School of Business at Prague College, Czechia.

"The timing given was a bit challenging and presenting was a bit nervous. I think that experience will definitely contribute to my studies in the long run. It was really fun to present and to get that experience, and I was sure that our presentation stood out and it had to win, definitely!" Mikhail, BA (Hons) International Management Student

"I found the project to be really interesting, it gave us the chance to showcase what we’ve been learning throughout the second semester. We had the chance to show our presentation skills, which shows that teamwork is really important especially when working in groups. The build up to the presentation taught us a great deal in time management, as we only had a couple of days to prepare. The information is directly linked to what we’re studying this semester, so this was really helpful." Fraser, BA (Hons) International Management Student
