Psyche of the BEST: Mind your own business!
2018
Our last course was on the theme of Business Psychology. Participants visited popular Estonian start-ups and big companies to see their business strategies. Learned how psychology and business are connected and how they could use it in their lives and workplaces. Also, we got a better understanding of web marketing and IT-companies.

2017
Our 2017 course was on the theme of WOOD. Learning about typical and mechanical qualities of wood and how to process wood with CAD and CNC-technology. At the end of the course each participant had made their own wood object which was made during the practical part. Also during company visits participants saw how different objects are made out of wood.
Testimonials 2017
"I am just so thankful to each and everyone of you, even though there's some people I barely have spoken to. I know how much time and energy it takes to organize this and you did the best job, something a participant could barely dream of. From now on I have such a high level of expectation that I don't even dare to take another BEST course because it will never match this experience. Furthermore I now also have an excellent opinion about Estonia and Estonian people in general, you should be proud on behalf of your country. Really I'm so so thankful, applying for this course has been one of the best decision I've ever made. I really hope to meet some of you at least very soon and until then take care everybody, lots of love ! "

"Simply the BEST experience ever: 25 students of 21 different countries met together for 10 days of pure fun and unforgettable moments. The organization was awesome: interesting company visits, always differentiated activities, amazing parties. For sure I will suggest a BEST course, in particular organized by BEST Estonia. "
Mariagiulia from Italy
"Thank you for everything. The spirit the organisers had: ALWAYS helpfull, ALWAYS kind, ALWAYS wanting us to enjoy the course... I will never forget what you did for us. I have never been to another course but I doubt that there are five who did a better job this year. I'm still living with my head in Estonia and recovering from what you gave me: an experience I will never forget and the feeling of being so tired that I will never get rid of it, but I take it for the team! Thank you, strange Estonians!"
Florian from Belgium
