Student Testimonials

Giovanni - Italy NTT DATA- Functional Analyst Consultant

My current path teaches me that it is not too late to change course even when you have already started a different kind of path. What makes the difference is: the desire to prove yourself, determination and looking straight towards the final goal. The lesson I learned? Do not allow yourself to be influenced by the opinions of others, by the fear of not succeeding and by the first difficulties your encounter.

Nicole - Italy The information Lab - Data Analyst

In the end, I would recommend Rome Business School to all the professionals and graduates who aim to accelerate their career or even start a new one. It allowed me to kick off my data analytics career, and its international environment has led me to meet many people from different countries.
