What is something you found valuable about your CBA Advantage experience?

I discovered that the CBA Advantage program delivers tangible benefits for enhancing my growth as a business leader outside of traditional classroom settings. It offered me the chance to advance my personal growth and helped me prepare for internships, interviews, and other career development opportunities.

What advice do you have for students as they complete their CBA Advantage requirements?

Just get started. There are a wide variety of activities and opportunities to complete your CBA Advantage requirement, whether attending a club or organization's meeting or completing an asynchronous activity. And start small. Build your portfolio with smaller activities, like creating your LinkedIn profile and internship or job reflections, and work your way to completing Bloomberg Certifications.

What activities in CBA Advantage would you recommend to students? 

I enjoyed completing both Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC) and Bloomberg Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Certifications.
