Coursera has done a great job by inroducing such dynamic certification and provided oppurtunity worldwide to spread knowledge, develop skills and flurish abilities of students. Thank you once again.
A wonderful introduction to Project Management that engages the users full attention from beginning to end. The instructors were both friendly and informative. I would happily recommend this course.
So much information was packaged in this course but it was so well organized and delivered that I was compelled to complete every segment. Well timed quizzes helped to ensure my comprehension as well.
I enjoyed the course overall, but wish there was a way to create/save notes in other areas besides the videos. It would be helpful to highlight or bookmark content from the readings or case studies.
