"As a current student in the Master of Education (M.Ed) programme, I’ve found the experience to be both enriching and transformative. The course structure is thoughtfully designed to bridge educational theory with classroom practice, and it encourages a reflective, inquiry-driven approach to teaching and learning.What I value most is how the programme emphasizes real-world application—through portfolios, case studies, and critical readings—while still providing a strong foundation in research, curriculum design, and inclusive education. The assignments push me to think critically about current challenges in education and explore innovative solutions.The faculty fosters intellectual curiosity and provides consistent support, helping learners grow as both educators and researchers. Whether you're transitioning into leadership roles, aiming to influence policy, or simply deepening your classroom practice, this programme offers the right tools and perspective.Overall, it’s a meaningful journey for anyone committed to making a positive impact in the field of education."

"I am attending the Masters in Business Administration program. I am in the winter of my career and want to expand my knowledge base. It's an excellent and rigorous program if you are disciplined and confident in teaching yourself. Without live instructors or physical classrooms, it's a different learning experience. I enjoy having classmates from all over the world. I just finished a class in Managerial Accounting, and we had a group presentation( all classes require a presentation). We coordinated our contribution to the presentation through Google because some of our classmates were in different countries overseas. The contribution from their perspective was eye-opening. Many people don't understand that in advanced studies, the instructor is more of a facilitator of conversations than a teacher. You have to work to get what you want out of the program. I am enjoying my studies and would highly recommend the program."

I learn from great instructors and motivated and competitive students from around the world. The peer-grading learning platform ensure you submit your best assignment every time. Administration is attentive. I hear from my advisor two or three times per term. The transfer of credit process is transparent. The costs are transparent. The costs prevent student debt. In school scholarships help those who struggle. Zero books to purchase. Zero travel costs. Overall. A great experience!"

"I was not working in the computer science career field, but wanted to become proficient at it. UoPeople's tuition-free programs that you could access without having to attend at a campus open up this opportunity for me. The curriculum is high-quality and its tough to beat not paying tuition."
