Customer Reviews
A really useful, informative resource for learning!
As a law student, I am so grateful for this podcast! We are expected to be commercially aware, yet getting started is a difficult task. It has helped me so much with my Banking Law studies and understanding the jargon we’re not directly taught.
I have learned so much already from the first episode and I am so eager to listen to the rest!
Thank you Bright Network!
Thank you
Thank you for allowing me to learn about this jargon which is thrown everywhere but is never taught
