I am so grateful for the experiences I've had during my educational program. I have been able to get a foot in the door in the international business community through IIB's connections and introductions, there are so many course options that have expanded my interests to topics I never even considered, the instructors give me valuable real-world experiences in the classroom, my mentors have been an invaluable resource, and I have learned so much through my experiences with IBSN and CIBERVets.
