I want to share my experience with Torrens University. They initially gave me an offer letter and Confirmation of Enrollment (COE), but after I had been in the course for a year, they changed the name of the course and added more subjects to my study plan. It really feels like Torrens is using this format to make more money from students. This kind of practice is frustrating and makes it hard for us to plan our studies effectively.

The degree matched its expectation and was in line with goals set before starting the degree. The most important aspect of the degree was to build the latest skills in my domain and be able to interact with the industry. Both of these were well provided by the university. Would definitely recommend it to others.
I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
