2. What was your MIS skill and knowledge level (both business and technical skill and knowledge) before taking the first MIS course at UIS?

3. What is your MIS skill and knowledge level now?

4. How do your current skill and knowledge compare with the goals those MIS courses outlined?

5. What arethree key critical lessonslearned in the MIS program? (These 3 lessons should be a mixture of technical and non-technical areas).
