STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
ROSALIE ABI KARAM, Lebanon
"I chose the Fashion & Luxury Business Management program at Global Business School because it was one of the best fashion & luxury business programs around. The school’s ASIC accreditation was also very encouraging. I studied with a lot of people from all around the world, and it was very rewarding to work with individuals from so many cultural backgrounds. It was a great idea to study and complete the Fashion & Luxury Business Management program."
GBSB Global Alumna, Class of 2017
AIDAN MCKEVITT, USA
"I’ve had the opportunity to learn alongside students from a variety of countries I knew very little about. Most importantly, what I have gained during the time I spent at GBSB Global was very unique. I obtained an education in social and cultural understanding that is unparalleled to any university I have attended in the past. This factor alone will make me more marketable."
