I was able to use the newly learned excel skills and complete a 4-week assignment from my summer consulting internship in just 3 days, my boss was very pleased! The course built my skills in a number of key platforms that I do not have exposure to in my normal Swarthmore classes.
Economics | Swarthmore College, ’22
The Professional Readiness Intensive program really provided me some valuable experience and helped me develop skills that I can’t wait to use in such a short amount of time.
Computer Science | Bryn Mawr College, ‘21
I learned a great deal in these past couple of days, especially the mindset of taking things one step further after data analysis and developing a contingent story.

Participation in AESOP Academy’s Business Analyst program has been one of my most enjoyable learning experiences at Bryn Mawr. Under Panos’ mentorship, I learned advanced data analysis skills and also honed my organizational and presentation skills. I gained experience collaborating with peers to solve real-world business cases under tight deadlines and presenting to industry experts. Panos is very engaging and his encouragement and patience accelerated my learning. Above all, he provided valuable career advice and helped me develop confidence in my abilities. I can’t thank him enough for his guidance and look forward to participating in more programs with the Academy.

Aesop Business Academy was a life-changing experience. In just five days it taught me how to get an internship, how to analyze and deliver data in a professional way, and it even arranged a panel of professionals to share with me the most valuable real life experience in the field. WOW. If I ever get an ideal job, I will thank Aesop. Thank you for such an amazing program.

AESOP’s intensive workshops were very impactful both in developing my technical skills and soft skills and broadening my network. This was the best thing to do right before I start my internship; it was well needed.
Economics and Mathematics | Bryn Mawr College, ‘21
It was clear that AESOP was working to make the course both educational and fun, which was really nice, especially in such hard times. The environment throughout the course was incredibly welcoming and I feel ready to tackle some real world problems.

I feel so lucky that I was able to take Aesop Academy’s Intensive Program over the fall break. The program was structured in a very effective way such that we not only saw the broad picture of consulting and businesses but also practiced the key skills to be a successful coworker and leader and listened to the stories of top business executives in such a short period of time. Panos was an incredible teacher: he believed in every student’s ability and created a welcoming environment to make sure we feel comfortable learning data analysis which may seem overwhelming. I particularly enjoyed working on several hands-on team projects as I was able to build new friendships, learn from my peers, and practice my leadership skills as to how to use the given time effectively, move on to a next step as a team, and share my opinions politely but clearly.

Developing interview skills, networking with top business executives, and learning data-analysis skills gave me the confidence to envision myself pursuing a business career in the future. As someone with no previous experience with programming and data analysis, I felt incredibly empowered when we learned key industry programs such as SQL and Excel beyond the elementary level. Because of Aesop, I firmly believe students should have access to data-analysis programs early on in school so that they too can gain exposure to careers in business and data analytics. I want to thank Aesop Academy and the wonderful guest speakers for helping empower me to work toward my career endeavors early on in my college career

Aesop Academy is the best workshop I have attended so far. It addressed the technical skills that I have been wishing for. The content is so well organized such that I wasn't overwhelmed by the material yet very comprehensive. Thank you so much for bringing in well-rounded speakers who addressed both careers and real life. I learnt a lot and was inspired by the speakers and my classmates. Like I said on Linkedin "I couldn't have spent my fall break any better

Aesop’s intensive workshops manage to equip you with the soft and hard skills you need to be a more competitive applicant in today’s market. During all my internship interviews this season, I felt confident while talking about my knowledge on SQL or Tableau. It really helped me show my interviewers that not only was I a cultural fit, but also in tune with the software and industry knowledge used in their day to day work
Academy Student ‘2018
The program really enhanced my perspective and increased my business acumen. Through the course, I received a detailed in depth overview of life as a consultant and investment banker, advanced Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint training, and networking advice along with a network that I can continue to utilize in the future. This program definitely helped me grow and develop my technical and behavioral skills along with my industry knowledge and I look to apply this training during my Deloitte internship this summer

The Aesop Business Analyst Training Academy provides students with an invaluable introduction to the skills they need to succeed in all different kinds of business environments. I highly recommend the program to any student, regardless of their background or current skill set. The Academy does an awesome job of presenting complex materials and skills in easily digestible lessons and I've found myself using the skills I learned in the program throughout all facets of life --- work and class included

I am grateful that Aesop Academy brought the Business Analyst Training Program to Haverford. Over the course of the program, I further developed both my "soft" skills, such as networking skills, and "hard" skills like Excel and presentation development skills. The instructors both offered incredibly helpful career insights as experienced consultants. I have to say my favorite part of the course was the hands-on final project. It gave me a sense of what I would actually be doing if I were to become a consultant and it allowed me to develop my teamwork skills. After the course I was more certain that I wanted to pursue a career in consulting.
