I was a bit skeptical about taking an online course in embalming chemistry, but I'm really glad I took the plunge. The Postgraduate Certificate from Stanmore School of Business was super helpful in achieving my learning goals, especially when it came to understanding the chemistry behind different embalming techniques. I appreciated how the course broke down complex concepts into easy-to-understand chunks, and the instructors were always available to answer questions. One thing that really stood out to me was the emphasis on safety protocols and best practices - it's clear that the course is designed with real-world applications in mind. My only suggestion would be to add more interactive elements to the course, but overall I'm really happy with my experience.
