I want to suggest that as a result of working somewhere, I learned the value of something. Can I use "as a result of which"?

Do I need comma?

Does this work?

I worked in that company for two years, as a result of which I appreciated the value of designing careful research.

Try:
I worked in that company for two years, [STRIKE]as a result of which I appreciated[/STRIKE] which taught me to appreciate ...
or
I worked in that company for two years, [STRIKE]as a result of which I appreciated[/STRIKE] where I learned to appreciate ...

Do you mean "the value of carefully designed research"?

You have to make sure there's a single, clear antecedent when you use phrases like "as a result of which". Your sentence has two possibilities, in that company and for two years, so you should use other wording.
