The Global Logistics Diploma was the best option for me as I work full time in the pharmaceutical industry. Course material was not only comprehensive, but easy to understand and spread out logically. The support from the e-tutor was very effective. I highly recommend this course for industry professionals to further their knowledge on logistics. I would like to emphasis how helpful my e-tutor was and how professional the college's services have been. I have already recommended this college to my colleagues.

The knowledge that I have gained has tremendously helped me in my field of work and it is something that has given me confidence. My perspective has changed and I now see things differently as I am able to make sound judgment in my decisions.

My experience at ShippingCollage was a great one. I rose from a level of complete ignorance to that of mastery of the basic knowledge and concepts about Global Logistics. I can describe the course as simplistic and easy to assimilate even for those who have never had any prior knowledge about logistics. I am very thankful for the time effort and supervision my e-tutor gave me throughout my study at ShippingCollege it was a great and knowledge enriching experience for me.
