Georgia Ann Bicknell
Master of Education for Adult Educators and Administrators
My experience with Jones International University® (JIU®) was wonderful. The coursework in Adult Education/e-Learning Technology was very practical and allowed me to work with senior members of our staff at the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI). My experience with this team greater enriched my thinking, research skills, and creating educational products. The experiences that I had with fellow classmates and professors working in adult education also expanded my thinking regarding the practicality and value of online learning. The content of the coursework and the convenience of working from home definitely allowed me to be able to finish the program in a period of time comparable to living on campus. JIU, thank you for contributing to my success and the opportunity to apply for, and receive, the prestigious Worldwide Who’s Who award by the Commandant during the Commander’s Call at DEOMI.
Dan Sullivan
Master of Business Administration
I have worked in online education for eight years and I am still benefitting from my experience at Jones International University! The quality of the education and the positive examples set by my advisors and instructors at JIU have assisted me with every aspect of my current position as a Director of Student Services. It takes a lot to get me to refer a business or a product, but I talk about JIU all the time, and have referred several students to the MBA program. Even now working for a competitor, I never hesitate to recommend JIU.
Aldo Pina
MBA – (Entrepreneurship)
My journey as a young entrepreneur started in fourth grade when I came up with what I believed to be a million-dollar idea for a microwave-toaster. From there I remember having hundreds of innovative ideas growing up.
After graduating in business economics from the Jones International University Englewood USA, I worked in a corporate job within the wine industry for a few years, managing major retailers in Europe. It wasn’t long though before I realised I needed to stop turning my back on my passion for entrepreneurship.
So, I took the plunge and started a company in Buenos Aires with two high-school friends – a start-up-oriented software company to get closer to high-tech entrepreneurs.
I quickly became obsessed with mentoring and haven’t stopped since. I’m currently based in Sydney, training entrepreneurs in the frameworks of starting a successful business. I’ve taught winning pitch and minimum viable product (MVP) workshops, Agile methodology and plenty of start-up tools.
In the last 24 months, I’ve mentored over 170 entrepreneurs across 30 different industries.

Master of Business Administration
Jones International University has been one of the best things that happened to my career. For years I was deliberating on whether to pursue my MBA degree, especially since I have four kids and a full time job. I am so proud that I am a part of the JIU team. Although the classes were very challenging, the professors and other employees at JIU were very helpful and supportive whenever I needed anything. I believe my MBA degree will help me advance as a person and in my career.
