during our effort to improve the quality of our programs. We would like to share several recent student comments with you for the current ISCM class. ‘First class, from initial contact through the class instruction, the instructors/professor, class facilities, food services and especially the class content were equal to or exceeding similar courses I've attended at UNC Chapel Hill and Stanford. I would highly recommend this class to other prospective students and having sent several of my employees here previously, I intend to send more as a preferred choice for supply chain courses.’ ‘Outstanding, world class from initial contact to end of the class. I will highly recommend to others.’
