This Postgraduate Program has contributed to a better understanding of the harmonization process, the collection, processing and dissemination of official statistics. It allowed me to deepen, in a solid and comprehensive way, a number of concepts related to the structure of the financial and economic activity of a country. Although it is very demanding, this program is very well structured and there is concern in promoting complementarity and balance between theoretical knowledge and its integration in a work context.

The excellence of Postgraduate Program in Statistical Systems was result of the heterogeneity of taught courses and academic fields of not only teachers but also students. The two semesters of continual learning have been a useful tool on my work at Banco de Portugal.
