Reviews of program participants
Winners of the program 1.0.
Participant of the UWE Hub 1.0 Program
I would like to start my feedback with the question: "How many offers per day do you see to receive free training?" Is it true that "the eyes are spreading?” :)
But most often, free programs simply sell paid education. As a result, the most precious and priceless thing - your own time - was spent.
And now imagine my surprise when I came to the first lecture on How to correctly formulate the vision of your business and it was a really high level of quality information that you can immediately use in practice!
Even popular paid courses with a cost of 1000 dollars or more do not always provide such thorough information as here on the free one!
