"I completed the Practical Accounting Course with Advantage of Africa School of Leadership, and it was a very impactful and flexible learning experience, especially with the evening sessions. I gained deeper practical knowledge in preparing asset registers an area I previously only understood at a basic level and now feel highly confident in it. Overall, the course was extremely beneficial and relevant to real-world practice."

"I came to know Vantage Africa School of Leadership through a friend who was doing Monitoring and Evaluation. I ended up doing 3 courses (M&E, Resource Mobilization and Practical Accounting). What I loved and will always love is the methodology used… I was able to learn so much within a short period of time."
