I want to express my sincere appreciation to all at eie in helping me achieving my BA degree in Business Administration. Special thanks to Mr. Antonello Cappitta and also to Mr. Daniel Pullicino who was of immense support in the final part of my course. With this degree I can now look forward in progressing my career with more tools in my portfolio to face my everyday challenges. Thanks and good luck! Dear EIE team,I would like to thank you for everything during these several years. I came to Malta with a clear objective - to complete my studies in a good university. I can now say that this mission is accomplished. You were very much involved in the whole process and I thank you for that. I’m ecstatic with the results I obtained at the end of my programme of studies at EIE. I enjoyed doing it as I learnt new concepts and skills that will serve me well in my career. This, apart from the fact that I widened my circle of friends and made new acquaintances. I wholeheartedly thank all the staff at eie, especially Ms.Antoinette Micallef. You supported me all the way even when the going went tough. Your help was invaluable and I managed to make it through. I have successfully completed a Diploma in Management and BA (Business Administration) degree at EIE - an institute which I highly recommend. Sincere thanks go to Mr Antonello Cappitta for his professional, constant support and dedication; to all lecturers and administrative staff. EIE opens doors for great opportunities. I was offered the post of full-time Monitoring Officer at ETC and am immensely happy. Since learning is an on-going process, I look forward to read for an MBA. EIE is not just about learning, but fun! There comes a time in life when a person needs to consolidate his accumulated work experience over the years, and to renew his academic and professional skills in order to remain employable in the ever evolving competitive global environment. This is the only way forward to remain marketable since a job for life does not reflect today’s reality. A team of professionals at EIE helped me decide which study course to undertake according to my carrier path and aspirations - An IUKB MBA study course was the right choice for me. This course gave me the opportunity to expand my knowledge and skills in 3 major pillars in the world’s economy: - Business, Banking and Tourism. The course was full of challenges, where I was faced with lots of ups and downs, but one thing I have learned in this course, was how to convert these challenges into opportunities for my personal growth and development. With the support of a professional and dedicated team of lecturers, my dream turned into reality. Perseverance, dedication, focus and total commitment were the major key success factors in my endeavour. If I did it, you can do it too! “Dear Mr. Cappitta & Ms. Sciberras, I would like to thank you for the excellent delivery of the Diploma in Psychology just completed. I now look forward to complete this course by working on the assignments. Although this is my first experience in this subject, I found the course material very interesting and would be very much interested in furthering my studies in Psychology should you offer a degree level in future. The lecturer was simply brilliant, able to transmit his knowledge to all the students present for his lectures. It is a pity that the course was rather limited to only ten lectures as I would have relished attending some other lectures. Please rest assured that I will recommend your institution to prospective students. Once again thanks. Best Regards” Studying at my own pace during my free time was the excellent choice which made me reach my ultimate career goal. The coursework enabled me to expand my business knowledge into a dimension which was beneficial to myself as well as to the organization I work in. EIE enabled me to become value added to my place of work resulting in larger benefits and easier promotion. Studying was not tedious but rather interesting and the books and coursework made learning easy. I would recommend studying with EIE to anyone who chooses to prioritize with his personal ambitions. – Studying with the European Institute of Education (EIE) for two and a half years was one of the most enjoyable experiences in my life, and I have made significant achievements not only in the research area but also in my personal life. The MBA programme (through University of Leicester School of Management) gave me the satisfaction in knowing that I have accomplished something that not a lot of people can or are willing to do. With this course, the knowledge and resources I obtained as a result of my education, I have been able to keep on the cutting edge of my career while having the opportunity to choose the top-post amongst various highly paid job offers that were offered to me. The advantage of taking a distance learning programme at EIE, was flexibility. Lecturers, professors and students were easy to reach and they do express a sincere interest to be helpful and interact. The on-line student support channel kept me motivated and on track. The course gave me the opportunity to get to know people from all over the world. EIE was there when I needed them and were always ready to go out of their way to help and give a sterling service. I would encourage anyone thinking of pursuing an MBA to seriously consider their programmes offered by University of Liecester. EIE has helped me develop the confidence to say “Yes, I can do it” and the confidence to follow through and succeed. This graduation means so much to me because, I worked really hard at it and my family sacrificed a lot for me to be here and to take the time away from them to commit to doing the work. It hadn’t been easy at all. The most important thing I want students to know is that even though it has been a distance learning program, it’s a brick and mortar type of program that you’re getting. Thanks to EIE it’s by far first class. Reading for an MBA at EIE is more then just earning a degree. EIE offers a friendly and welcoming environment. The administrative staff are committed at providing the best service to the students whilst the tutors are committed at providing interesting lectures with modern ways of tutoring. I entered EIE as an individual but today I am part of a group of friends whose support was not temporary but ongoing. Graduating from EIE is not the end of a learning process but a new beginning. I have been wanting to read for an MBA for the whole twelve years that I have been working in Finance & Administration. I had spoken to various institutions about different MBA's but I was never actually convinced into taking the big step of getting down to study again for a Masters. Then I got to know about EIE, and their MBA program in collaboration with IUKB Switzerland, and spoke to their president, Antonello Cappitta. Without any further hesitation, I enrolled myself in the programme and started reading for the MBA. It suited my needs perfectly, as I wanted to get the masters in the least time possible, without any compromise, and continue working full-time during the studies. During the course of the MBA, I found all the staff and lecturers at EIE extremely helpful, answering all queries and concerns whenever I needed. Antonello Cappitta used to go out of his busy schedule to answer any queries himself. I can definitely recommend EIE to anyone who wants to further his studies. I firmly believe that the MSc in Finance programme of study is superior for people with a demanding job and limited time available. Three main characteristics of the course are clearly the outstanding University Staff’s assistance, the effective web-board support and the excellent programme structure which covers all the critical areas of finance necessary to run a business in a professional, effective and proactive way. The MSc Finance is an overwhelming personal challenge of intellectual depth and rigorous self-discipline, but nevertheless an exciting personal experience that has stimulated my inner knowledge in the field of finance. I must also thank EIE staff, who were always there to answer my demanding queries and for running so professionally the administrative part of the course. “The flexibility allowed me to plan my studying according to the circumstances and this makes it a more pleasurable and therefore rewarding experience. EIE’s support was excellent. All my queries were answered promptly and efficiently. EIE is a very professional organization and an initial meeting showed the quality of the distance learning materials which influenced my application for the course. I will not hesitate to recommend them” “I am employed with a foreign manufacturing company for the last 15 years. I started off as a student in the printing department while I was studying engineering. After my studies I was employed as a shift leader, this meant that I needed some management skills to further improve my work. I attended some short courses in management during this time to help me out with my job. After 3 years I was promoted to Head the printing department, this time I decided to start studying to achieve a certificate in management. My decision was to start studying for a diploma in management which I achieved after 2 years. This helped me out to decide to continue further with my studies. I sourced around to find the best university to cater for my requests which included work commitments, study time and family. I am happy that I chose EIE since: - EIE staff helped me out and assisted me with all the requests/problems I presented - the course package suited my needs at work - studying from home was an advantage to me - time frame to finish up the course was comfortable My objective was to finish up in the least possible time, and I can say that this was partly achieved with the help and support of EIE. Books, assignment questions and any other material needed for every module were given in time, queries were answered promptly. This gave me the opportunity to study without any problems and achieve the end result. I have promoted this service to all my friends since I feel that this was an experience which I cannot forget, my next step is a DBA in management hopefully in the near future.” "After finishing a first degree in Management, it was of utmost importance for me to further my studies and specialise in Marketing. EIE offered me a very interesting package for a 2-year MBA specialising in marketing degree. It can be described as exceptionally up-to-date, demanding and rewarding. The staff at EIE was always there in times of difficulties and at times also go out of their way to make sure that we students were satisfied with the level of service provided. My congratulations to all at EIE and keep it up. You have managed to make the two years of hard work and study pass by smoothly and successfully thanks to that smile you always have on your faces." "I did not know where to go. My hopes were gone. I did not know what qualifications I should attain to reach my goals. What I knew was that I wanted to do something better for myself. I wanted to find the opportunity to enjoy learning, to develop my skills further and to broaden my prosperities. I did what I believed that I could do with the help of the European Institute of Education who gave me this opportunity. The experience at EIE was worthwhile and the staff was efficient, supportive, helpful and dynamic by all means. I started first by undertaking the Certificate in Management by distance learning and then afterwards I progressed towards the Diploma in Management. The programmes were designed professionally and I learned a lot and had a great foundation towards the masters degree. This experience has encouraged me to look forward in life. My role at work has also changed, my responsibilities have increased and I am happy because my dreams came true. I am totally impressed with this because I never thought that I can find some body that cares for the students. Yes I would recommend EIE to everyone because this makes EIE's student a star - a star team." “A qualification in management is important in my job and is also considered an asset for promotion purposes. My colleague had recommended the European Institute of Education. I immediately applied for the Diploma In Management and completed the course. When I completed the Diploma, EIE also encouraged me to start a Masters Degree, which I did. So at the moment, I’m doing the Masters in Business Administration. EIE were very helpful and answered all my queries promptly. I’m sure I’ll always find their support whenever I need it”. “I found out about the courses offered by EIE through a local newspaper. Since graduating from University, I wanted to continue studying part – time, while working and decided to give them a call. The staff at EIE was very helpful in answering all my questions and concerns. I started and completed my Diploma in Management and have recently started the Masters in Business Administration with EIE.” "The European Institute of Education (EIE) is a multi discipline, multi skilled resource group based in Malta with education at the core of its business activities and offering accredited courses of different European and American Universities. What is more important - they offer extraordinary, professional but friendly service to all their students with no exceptions. As a foreigner living in Malta for nearly five years I have never experienced such a warm, friendly and benevolent attitude. Since the very first e-mail I sent to EIE until my last exam they organized for me last October in Brisbane, Australia - I have received nothing but excellent, professional and outstanding response from EIE and all their Staff. In previous two years they have provided superb service for me as a foreign student in Malta and UK, as well as overseas. At this stage I have nearly finished my MBA study through EIE and I consider some of their Staff not only as highly professional, skilled and customer-oriented but also as my friends. The European Institute of Education (EIE) is perfect example of successful, modern, flexible and highly competent organization ready to become internationally recognized and accepted." "Even from a very young age, I have always been mystified about why someone acts the way one does and if there is any explanation behind it all. So, as a summer past time I chose to do a Psychology Diploma with the European Institute of Education. I decided to take this course so that I could decide better what to take at university as my degree. In fact, I could not have done a better choice! The European Institute of Education offers one of the best ways of teaching that I have ever encountered. The course material is written in understandable English and the layout is very well presented which helps one be interested in reading it. The tutorials which are laid out on a once a week basis are assigned as small groups which help one discuss more and understand more. This is a factor which I ultimately miss at university as with the European Institute of Education; every tutorial meant that one can be open to criticise and speak about what we were learning. As a final point, I would recommend European Institute of Education to anyone as it must be the best way of enriching learning and helping to reduce the stress and mass hypnosis which might be depicted by most means of education nowadays. It surely helped me in continuing my studies and even on a day-to-day basis!" "Working as an engineer for twelve years on various projects, I touched many areas in management. The postgraduate degree of MBA, is the programme I was after to tie up all the various skills attained and help me towards my next ambition - managing my own business. Being mostly abroad from Malta, I think I am always a bit of a headache to the staff at EIE due to my peculiar requests. Their reply and support is not within the next day but it is within the next couple of hours - surely this is the type of first class support that is required by a student on a very busy schedule. I have no hesitation in recommending the Leicester MBA to any prospective candidate and even more any other course offered that is backed up by the very proficient staff at the institute. " "The MSc in Finance is a well structured programme suitable mainly for professional practitioners in the field of finance. Indeed, the depth of the areas covered in the nine modules as well as the challenge of the dissertation, provide the student with the necessary tools to move forward in this dynamic and competitive industry. My personal experience with both the University as well as EIE cannot be termed anything else except highly positive. The constant support provided by the Institute helped me get through the tough times and the University's Web Board served almost as a virtual campus. Heartfelt thanks and sincere gratitude are expressed to staff members of the European Institute of Education for the dedication and professional attitude with which they carry out their duties. " "Studying after a long day at work was a huge personal challenge and needed strong discipline and will. However, the quality of the course content and discussions kept me hooked, and for this I have to thank EIE for providing me the opportunity of studying for a Masters Post-Graduate degree by distance learning. The highlight of the course was, of course, the conference at the University. Meeting students from all over the world who are reading the same course (and finding the same difficulties!) was a great way of sharing experiences and feel like a student again. Last but not least, I would like to thank the administration assistance at EIE, who are professional and helpful at all times." The Leicester MBA program was an incredible experience for me! This program gave me the opportunity to learn updated business practices and core business skills in a competitive environment. The well structured curriculum grounded in fundamental business practices provided me with the necessary skills and understanding to successfully advance in my career. With the knowledge and experience gained, I continuously look for every opportunity to meaningfully contribute towards the advancement of the company I work for. For students who are unable to attend a campus-based MBA program, Leicester MBA programme offers the convenience and the flexibility, allowing students to complete their studies while balancing their work and family life. The program's easy access to libraries, course materials, discussion boards, and chat rooms provided me the flexibility to network with other students around the world at any time. The easy access to support services -something that even the best funded campus universities cannot provide, proved to be of great support. I also would like to voice my thanks and appreciation for the excellent support that Antonello, Antoinette and the whole team at EIE have provided me over the duration of my studies. Keep up the good work guys and rest assure that I highly recommend both the staff at EIE and the programs on offer to any prospective candidate. Through EIE I had the possibility to further my studies at Sheffield Hallam University and now that I finished the MSc (IT and Management) course I would like to thank EIE management and staff for the support provided when needed. "When I chose EIE and ULMC for my MBA it was on the basis of the criteria of flexibility, accreditation and cost, in that order. With hindsight this has proved to be an excellent choice. The course format suited my needs perfectly and I was able to balance my studies with my work commitments quite easily. The academic content, organisation, support and resources offered by ULMC were top notch. Last but not least, EIE's service has been exceptional throughout. EIE's people have a unique way of being truly efficient and professional without sacrificing personal attention and good old-fashioned friendliness! “Dear Mr. Cappitta, I just wanted to let you know that as of the 2nd January, 2008 I took the post of Indirect Channels Manager within Vodafone. Finally my efforts were rewarded and I got a managerial post. Quite obviously this would have not been possible without the MBA I did at EIE.” "Hi guys. While I couldn’t make it to the graduation due to work commitments, I want to thank you for your help in making an ambition turn to reality for me. I still remember seeing your advert in the newspaper, sending my application and being accepted. It was a long and sometimes difficult journey, but you guys at EIE helped me. I hope that in your daily hassles and chores, you at least occasionally remember that your work and business makes a difference for people – I’m one of those people. Keep up your good work! Thanks. In summer of 2003 I casually called at the Eie offices to enquire about Masters programmes related to education. I spoke to Antoinette who kept my details and gave me a brochure. I simply browsed through it and forgot all about it. In September of 2004, Antoinette Micallef kept me updated by sending me the program that was to commence in October. At the age of 49 and following a bypass operation, I thought to myself that it was now too late to embark on a though programme of studies. I somehow found myself speaking to Antonello Cappitta who was very empathising and encouraging. Thanks to the continued support and dedication of the people I came in contact with at Eie, I ended up at Leicester University for my graduation in MSc Educational Leadership on the 25 January of 2008. Another 10 students graduated through Eie when I was in Leicester. I am also very grateful to Antonello Cappitta for his presence during the celebration activity and the graduation ceremony. As he represents Leicester University, his presence on this occasion made us all relaxed and experienced an event that we will always treasure in our hearts. As a word of encouragement to all those who are considering taking a step forward in their studies, I have reflected and came up with this slogan - 'It is never late to graduate!' All the best," "Dear Mr. Cappitta, With the following note I would like to put forward my most sincere and genuine appreciation in your regards for all your help in the MBA Banking & Finance Course. I just sent my thesis for printing and I deem it appropriate to show my gratitude to all your staff for their kind support. Special thanks go to all the academics and lecturers for their much appreciated availability. Kindly forward my thanks to all lecturers and staff involved. The only black spot in these last months was the unfortunate loss of our companion Sammy, otherwise it would have been a memorable experience. I thank you again for all your help and support. Best Regards"
