It only remains to wish you every success ...

Would be to one option.

Indeed, or perhaps "And now we wish you .." or "And so we wish you..." to emphasise the link with what has gone before

Good Luck with your course!

Maybe this would suffice.

That said...

One of those coincidences - the phrase just occurred in a text I'm working on and without a second thought, I typed "That said..." which for my context at least is an appropriate gloss.

neutral Kcda : I believe you mean "...having said that.." ?
4 hrs
disagree mill2 : that said implies that what follows contradicts what came before, and means the opposite of In dem Sinne...

In this respect we wish you every succes /allot of sucess

I just wanted to provide an alternative. In "diesem Sinne" can be translated as "in this respect". Note, I am using the word respect as in "from this aspect".
Peer comment(s):

neutral Kim Metzger : allot of sucess?
1 day 5 mins
disagree Alison Schwitzgebel : In this respect sounds stilted, and by "allot" you surely mean "a lot" - which is too colloquial in this context.
