Accomplished amplifiers. Achieved!
The flexible learning has been a refreshing experience. The video seminars have been very informative and educational. It has put the whole environment of operations management in a broader context for me. We are currently doing Lean and Six Sigma training in my organisation. This course has put these tools into the context of the broader organisational objective as opposed to just a functional improvement effort. This has been one of the best learning experiences for me.
This course has been a real eye opener. Every week I found myself being more grateful for being chosen for this course. My expectations have been surpassed. I have been reminded about the future plans I have for myself. I’ve been mentally stagnant. Doing this course and sacrificing some time to complete it has shown me there is a lot more I can achieve, without the thought being too daunting. Amazing!
This course has exceeded my expectations as I am a visual learner; the added aid of the video content made it so much easier to understand. It was accessible at any time, and I also had the benefit of immediately applying the knowledge and skills to my day-to-day work and personal environment. DigitalCampus has given me the confidence and courage to empower myself. I absolutely loved the fact that the course was so accessible, and I enjoyed the interaction with other learners. I will always be grateful for this opportunity, as I grow within our organisation.
At first I was nervous but after module two I started enjoying everything about the course, and now I have a better understanding of operations management. Having the Wits brand in my CV will be a huge boost in confidence; the knowledge will make me highly marketable.
The course has exceeded my expectation as this was the first online course I’ve completed. The module zero content clarified and covered a lot of what to expect and clearly defines the process.
The complete course was relevant, informative, and gave me a lot of insight and the foundation needed to help me in my future roles. It has given me the understanding of terms and techniques I experience while deployed in the project team. Indeed, the DigitalCampus courses are credible, accessible, and applicable. Well done to the team. I’m looking forward to advanced project management courses.
As a baby boomer, I did not always understand why the millennials are always so busy on their phones and social media, and why they didn’t interact face-to-face. This course has opened up my understanding! I am a corporate account manager and have been in the field for around 29 years. I have really learned a lot about customer relations and the importance of customer satisfaction. I think it has made me realise I have to go back to basics and not take clients for granted. The course has impacted the way I treat my clients and has had a direct impact on my sales figures.
This course has empowered me so much that I can see myself as a logistics manager in the future; the organisation I will manage will never fall apart because I have learnt all the types of wastes and how to avoid them so you can benefit in business. I would like to say thank you to DigitalCampus for this opportunity, honestly I never thought that I would receive such information. Now I’m more excited in doing my job and looking forward to growing in my department.
This course has exceeded my expectations. It is simple and versatile. I love that I can study anytime and anywhere. It makes learning so much more interesting. The assignments are also very clear and concise. The whole layout of the course is very clear and accessible. They say knowledge is power and that is very true, and with DigitalCampus it’s so simple to achieve one’s goals. I will definitely be thinking of studying with them in the near future and will definitely recommend DigitalCampus to anyone.
The course has indeed exceeded my expectation, I had a completely different understanding of what operations management was, only to learn that it is something else. I enjoyed the course as this has opened my understanding and mindset to so many prospects. The journey has been an amazing one; I’ve learned so much and am sad that it has come to end, however I will be taking all that I have learned from the course which is a lot. Thank you!
I have an aspiration of starting a family business and the idea is gaining momentum because of the new things I have learned from this course. Proper planning, taking time to do research, and testing the water are some of the things that made me realise that running a business demands leadership, patience, empathy and dedication. An organisation needs to improve its products and services to meet ever-growing changes or demands. You have revived my passion to study further. Thanks to the DigitalCampus team.
