Now as I get close to finishing my degree in Business Administration, I appreciate TUI more than ever, and I would like to share with you my thoughts and experience.

TUI University is a valuable resource for federal, local and military police officers. For me and many others, TUI provides an opportunity to pursue our educational goals. I would like to give you an update on my progress.

I have been attending TUI University for several years. I am working on my fully online B.S.B.A. With my career, family and other commitments, I am not sure I could advance my education any other way. Prior to finding TUI, I had completed many college courses but seemed to make little progress. The staff at TUI changed that. They were able to analyze all of the course work I had taken and my professional training and recommend a realistic approach to accomplishing my goal of earning a degree.

Once I started the program, TUI's electronic interface made it easy to access the educational tools I needed in the limited time I had. I normally access the course materials at the beginning of the session or module and print the reading and study list. The mandatory and suggested material always leads me into further research of the topic. By using the Cyber Library, Proquest and participating in the online discussion, it's amazing how much information can be gathered to write a comprehensive and sophisticated research report. Years ago, when I started attending other schools, gathering that much detailed information would have taken days in several libraries.

I would also like to say that none of my instructors have ever rubber-stamped my reports. The critique they provided has always been very specific to my work and given me additional insight into the topic. I have the satisfaction that I have earned each grade, for all my courses.

The courses have also been challenging and useful. My wife and sons attend local colleges. When we all compare content and the required effort to complete the assignments, TUI University's material seems more up-to-date and the critical thinking required to complete the assignments seems more practical. This is also reflected in my personal experience. There has not been a class and very few modules that have not given me skills or insight that I have used in my professional career or personal life. My work product has vastly improved, due to the skills I have developed through TUI's program.

I would like to thank you again for following up on my progress since our meeting at IACP. Law enforcement needs to know about TUI. I hope to see you again soon. By then, I hope to be working on my graduate studies.

Thanks,

Mike Kampen (May 2010)
