Edward on how OUA helped progress his career

When he realised how easy it was to study online, Edward went from squeezing through with a pass to achieving excellent marks.

 

For Edward Sadza, online study was about more than climbing the corporate ladder: it was about showing his kids that “anything is possible if you put your mind to it”.

The father of two is doing an Executive MBA with RMIT University through Open Universities Australia, while working as a project manager at NAB.

In the beginning, his competing commitments had him wondering whether a pass was all he should aim for, but our flexibility and support soon proved him wrong. He’s already on his way to excellent marks.
