Diploma in Airline and Travel Studies
-
I have been awarded the Diploma in Airline and Travel Studies by Greenwich School Of Management. The overall university experience that I have had with GSM London is very good, but I also think that the Uni is still in its building process and I will be proud to say, when I finish, that I was part of that building block that has brought them forward. The team at GSM London are very helpful and are constantly looking for ways to keep their students satisfied.
