Student review

I felt as though the course didn't meet up with what was written on the website. There was initially too much practical at a time when theory was needed.

Student review

The ABMC at La Trobe is amazing. It is a hands on, practical, innovative course taught by a great balance of academics and industry professionals. The ASSC Loans department have great equipment available to students and are extremely knowledgable. The staff go above and beyond to provide students more hands-on help and have 24 hour facilities to help students that are “crammers”. Compared to what I have heard of other ABMC courses, La Trobe’s is by far the best. I have received offers from industry jobs thanks to the great relationships made with staff and colleagues at La Trobe. I definately recommend this course at LTU.
