Testimonials

The program has been very enriching. Not only have I had the opportunity to meet colleagues from different schools and learn how they manage their admission processes, but I have also gained a global and detailed perspective on what an MBA admission process entails—from how rankings are created to the candidate experience.

Marta Silvela, MBA Admissions Manager, IESE Business School

I’m so grateful for the chance to join the Admissions Essentials programme by Empower Admissions Consulting, led by Amy Duckworth.
As a Recruitment and Admissions Coordinator for the Full-Time MBA at Warwick Business School, I found all 5 modules super insightful, and I’ve already started applying many of the ideas in my role.

The Building a Cohort and Conversion modules stood out the most for me. Diving into different applicant profiles really helped me see the bigger picture, and connecting with professionals from other business schools was such a great way to exchange ideas. Plus, the breakout rooms were incredibly useful for deep discussions and practical takeaways!

Highly recommend this course to anyone in admissions, especially if you’re just starting out on your journey!

Sofiia Rozhdestvina , Recruitment and Admissions Co-ordinator, Warwick Business School

Attending the Admissions Essentials programme with two of my team members was genuinely a great experience. For them, it was an excellent introduction to the admissions field – comprehensive, clear, and practical. Amy’s deep experience really came through in how she approached the content. I personally found her insights incredibly thoughtful, and the careers module resonated with me in a way that I know will shape how I approach my work moving forward.
