The Polytechnic in Windhoek is the place to meet friendly people - lecturers, staff and students alike. The management and local organisers go out of their way to make your stay as memorable as possible.

The audiences (Finance and Accounting students and attendees of Innovation Management workshops) are eager to learn from your business experience and the world outside of Namibia. Despite a fairly busy schedule, there is always time to discover Windhoek and the environment on the weekends.

I enjoyed every minute of my stay. Preparation in advance (prior to departure) was crucial, since events were changed or additional ones scheduled frequently: flexibility and a positive attitude to everything is the key to mutual satisfaction.
