GBI recently completed the 'Aging and Disability' course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was an absolutely fantastic experience! The course content was incredibly comprehensive, covering a wide range of topics from the social and economic implications of aging to the importance of inclusive design. The practical knowledge and skills I gained have been invaluable in my work as an occupational therapist. The course materials were of the highest quality, with engaging videos, interactive quizzes, and relevant case studies. I particularly appreciated the emphasis on real-world applications and the opportunities to collaborate with fellow students from diverse backgrounds. Overall, I'm thoroughly satisfied with the course and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in this field.

USThe 'Aging and Disability' course at Stanmore School of Business was pretty cool. I learned a lot about how to design products and services that are accessible to people with disabilities, which is super important for my job as a product designer. The course materials were pretty good, with some really interesting examples and case studies. I liked that we got to work on a group project, where we had to design an accessible public space - it was a great way to apply what we learned. One thing that would've made the course better was more feedback from the instructors, but overall I'm happy with what I got out of it.

AUThe 'Aging and Disability' course at Stanmore School of Business was a well-structured and informative program that provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the key issues and challenges related to aging and disability. The course content was detailed and relevant, with a focus on evidence-based practice and real-world applications. I appreciated the use of case studies and scenario-based learning, which helped to illustrate the complexities of working with older adults and people with disabilities. The course materials were of high quality, with clear and concise instructions, and the online discussion forums were a great way to engage with fellow students and share experiences. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more Australian-specific content and examples, but overall I was satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others working in the field of health and social care.
