Interview

Timotej Rotovnik in their own words.

Study from home

“For me the key was being able to watch lectures afterwards. Because of work and other commitments I could not always be present live. This system allowed me to study at my own pace without gaps in my knowledge.”

Lecturers

“What surprised me most was that there are no traditional professors at Academia – they are people from industry and the profession. That gives the lectures a completely different value; the material is linked to real cases and practical experience.”

What has the course brought to your career?

“I am staying at the same company, Portorož Airport. I am already employed there, and the course gave me a lot of additional knowledge and breadth that I did not have access to before.”

Studying alongside work

“If you have many commitments, this is the ideal solution. You can listen to lectures when it suits you, and the examinations are more manageable because you can take them as you go, one after another, since the course is delivered in modular form.”
