This course will help you develop not only your skills as a diagnostician, but also your interpersonal skills and connections with others.
Graduated in March 2020 (9th batch)

What made you decide to enroll in graduate school?
By continuing on to higher education, you can learn practical knowledge through practical training in addition to classroom learning. In the actual exam, unlike the case study questions in the second exam, not all of the hints are in the questions. You need to find out the real issues customers face and make a proposal within a set time. As I was aiming to become an independent diagnostician in the future, I wanted to acquire knowledge that I could use in practice, not just knowledge, so I chose to continue on to higher education.
Please tell us why you applied to our Small and Medium Enterprise Consultant Training Course.
Since I had already secured employment, I needed to attend school while working, so I chose this university because the curriculum is organized on weekends. I also heard that no one from this university's faculty had yet obtained the Small and Medium Enterprise Management Consultant certification. As a graduate of Chiba University of Commerce, I wanted to become the first consultant Chiba University of Commerce and faculty, so I chose this university.
What was the best thing about going to college?
The good thing about continuing on to higher education is that you can make strong connections with the people you studied with. The bonds between members who solve problems together in practical training become very strong. Even after graduation, I am constantly communicating with my classmates and seniors and juniors in the training course through drinking parties and information exchanges. I think that having these kinds of connections is a great advantage for those who go on to become independent as diagnosticians. For me, the friends I made while continuing on to higher education have become my greatest asset.
Please tell us how you felt after completing graduate school.
While the two years went by in a flash, they were also very intense. I think they were the two years in which I grew the most in my 25 years of life. My teachers and classmates often tell me that I have changed so much in the last two years. This may be because I have become a working member of society, but I don't think I would have grown this much if I hadn't enrolled in the "Diagnostician Training Course at the University of Commerce."
What would you say to those who want to take the exam?
When I first enrolled, I had a lot of worries, such as adapting to the environment and time and money issues. However, by the time I graduated, I realized that I had gained many more benefits than that. Depending on your attitude towards learning, our university can help you develop connections with people and human skills. If you are unsure whether to do it or not, please give it a try. You won't know if it's the right answer until you try. I have changed a lot over the past two years. I look forward to meeting you all at the University of Commerce.
