UIU has helped me become a better writer, communicator, and speaker. It has pulled things from inside of me that I didn't know I had in me. I thought I would leave with a bachelor's degree in my field, but I have gained so much more. My confidence is high and I know everything I have learned will get me into a management position at my current job.
