ACA-ը տալիս է մրցունակ գիտելիքներ, ինչն էլ հետագայում կարիերայում հաջողություններ գրանցելու հնարավորություններ է ստեղծում: Ես ուրախ եմ, որ կարողացա դասընթացի ավարտին պես իմ տեղը գտնել աշխատաշուկայում:

ACA-ը տալիս է տեսական և գործնական այնպիսի գիտելիքներ, որոնց ճիշտ կիրառումը հնարավորություն է տալիս կարճ ժամանակում դառնալ ոլորտի լավ մասնագետ և աշխատել առաջատար կազմակերպություններում:
