“Being a mother of three children and a full-time chemist, I heard about the AODC program and said this is perfect for me. Being able to finish my degree on my own time – in the evenings after dinner and the kids are in bed – is perfect. Listening to some audiobooks for classes during my commute is really efficient.”
