Charles O.

Great and excellent workshop at DoctorateHub, Porto, Portugal! Very well organised and particularly useful learning and information delivered in a brilliant style. I would highly endorse and recommend the Porto Workshop to research students that are interested in improving their research thesis and in growing their research “scissor”. Overall, the learning environment was conducive and Porto, a beautiful city……

Webinar: Doing Research [not Development] – getting your research focused

Ahmed I.

For the more than 15 years (with the last 10 being in consultancy), i had been looking for ways to contribute to organizations that are interested in growth and broad-based development. I graduated from the DBA programme last year (2019), the course has accelerated my progress in understanding of organizations and now the doctoratehub is assisting me in sharpening these skills towards my interesting journey...I thank the providers of knowledge in the doctotratehub in providing this platform.

Advanced Course: Writing Up and Structuring your Thesis.

Thank you for your invaluable input on my thesis journey.

I acknowledge the sacrifice in time and effort you made to help me grow as I learn to adopt an academic perspective of my work-based problem.

It was rigorous but worth it.

May your journeys yield great success.

Advanced Course: Tackling Wicked Problems – or how to nail jelly to the wall

The wicked problem course was very fruitful for self-development and thesis progression.

Its structure facilitated progressive learning that built up well for the final write up in week 8.

It has enhanced my understanding of the thesis requirements.

Overall, the course was of great value because the resultant knowledge gain can be leveraged into thesis chapters.
