I am fortunate enough to have earned my Certificate in Project Management and a life-changing educational experience at Fairfax University of America, thanks to its high quality education and affordable rate. I am greatly blessed for my time at this university.
FXUA gives endless opportunities to meet and work with so many young and brilliant students from all over the world. Both the FXUA students and alumni’s personalities and cultural heritage have deeply impacted me. Together, we have engaged in school and community events that have made us all grow. Today, I am a member of the Project Management Institute (PMI) and I am looking forward to becoming a Project Management Professional (PMP) in the near future, because of the help from FXUA and its family.
Prior to studying at FXUA, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Geography, and a Master’s in Disaster Risk Management. From administrative manager to account manager, from teacher to event manager, I had already experienced so much in various fields. My family members, in addition to my peers, professors, and colleagues, have played an important role in my educational success and these past experiences. But because of FXUA, I have seen the world differently, as it has given me a unique perspective toward my lifetime goals.
Being in one of the most in-demand certificate programs with world-class professors in the United States is absolutely my biggest accomplishment so far. Now, I am ready to explore the next chapter in my life. Thank you, FXUA, for celebrating with me throughout my education!
Happiness is a decision you make every day, and thus happiness becomes a way of life. Decide to be happy today and always.

I heard about FXUA through the Virginia Unemployment Office under the Workforce Investment Area (WIA) program. The WIA is a program that assists unemployed personnel with a certain amount of funds toward a skill through a listed school. Upon completion, participants receive a Certificate of Learning that aims to help in gaining a better job.
I chose FXUA because the university is located near my home in Fairfax, VA, as well as a convenient distance from my job in Ashburn, VA. The class sizes at FXUA are small enough to let students receive one-on-one interaction with instructors and the diverse environment generates a variety of different cultures and viewpoints about any given subject. This type of environment also encourages students to interact with each other by working on projects together, instead of on our own.
What I like best about FXUA is convenience – I do not have a long drive from work or home. Also, FXUA enables qualified to students participate in their Internship program which is a wonderful opportunity to get on-the-job experience for their resume.
The FXUA faculty is very understanding, they try to fit their classes with my busy schedule. They did not treat me any different from the full-time students. I can change my status as a full-time student if my classes are available during the daytime. So, I would say to other American students looking at FXUA: what is an Adventure Outside-of-the-Box? There are opportunities at FXUA that are not the same in the larger universities and FXUA delivers an education that is just as good, but in my opinion better.
I have gained a lot of insight from my classmates, most of which have been students at FXUA for a year or more. My peers have encouraged me, and I know that I have made the right chose by selecting FXUA.
After I earn my Certificate of Small Business Administration, I would like to join a company that requires assistance with their small business, or even to start a small business myself!

I really enjoyed the class with Michael. He has a good sense of humor and great teaching techniques. Even the fact that we had to stay in the class from 7 till 9:30 pm was not so bad because we had a lot of fun.
I really enjoyed the TOEFL class. It improved my score in the TOEFL verbal test. During class, we practiced TOEFL from the different angles. We participated in group work where I improved my writing and listening skills. The teacher was so helpful during the class and always made class interesting for us.
I enjoyed the TOEFL class because I learned a lot. Our instructor was really nice and helpful. If I had to take the class again, I would definitely do it.
