Drigola Birk credits much of her success to the MPM program. \u201cThe program helped me build a strong foundation in the intricacies of Parliament Hill and the nuances in executing successful public affairs work,\u201d she said. \u201cThe wealth of information and experience that instructors and fellow students bring to the program meant I was able to hit the ground running upon graduation \u2013 and the program\u2019s alumni are an invaluable resource to all past, present and future students.\u201d<\/p>\n
