Dear all, I would like to kindly remind you about the request for your testimonials reflecting on your personal and professional growth throughout your doctoral journey. So far, I have received only two testimonials. These contributions are important, as we need to include them as part of the evidence and content supporting some of the project deliverables. As the QSI project will officially end on **30 September**, we are currently working on the preparation and submission of a large number of deliverables, and the remaining time is very limited. Therefore, I would greatly appreciate it if you could send me your testimonial **as soon as possible**. Please remember that the testimonial does not need to be very long, and you can use the guiding questions from my previous email simply as inspiration. A short reflection on your experience, personal growth, professional development, and lessons learned would be more than enough. Thank you very much for your cooperation and for helping us complete the project successfully. Best regards, Lorena G.
