If you are an EU citizen, you can use your E111 card at every doctor's office (if not private practice) in case of emergency. Otherwise you have to pay for healthcare, but you can forward your bills to your insurance company for reimbursement, depending on your private insurance.
The course was validated in Malta by the NCFHE (National Commission for Further and Higher Education) which ensures the validity of the ECTS accreditation at Masters level in the European Union – stated Mr. Stephen D’Alessandro, the director of Advenio eAcademy, Malta. The training is very intensive and it sets high expectations, but these conditions guarantee the high level and the quality of the course for the students.
A lot of teacher has left the University in the last 1 year. The online learning platform is lacking, most of the times unreachable. There is no Wi-fi connection, and also no place to sit, when we have a gap lesson. The one thing that’s really great is the society. I like the people who I am learning with.
Conducive to learning, I can see the effort of the professor to provide us good quality education.
It's a developing and competent institute with new opportunities and research every year, during the covid times the management and teachers switched to digital education very fast and gracefully.
