Has basic information that is good to know about this area. It is shorter than the 5 weeks, it can be done in 2 or 3. Good in general but it did not reached my expectation of showing interesting real life cases and more interaction. The assessment had some grading issues.

The course strictly entry level. The course content in my view might not have been laid out accordingly. I feel it is missing structure.

i am encountering technical issues with the course, whereby i am unable to complete a peer review which is necessary to move on to the next course. i have sent emails and attempted contact with anyone who can possibly assist for 3 days now and have received no response or support. i have paid my course and attempting to complete as soon as possible, however, that no longer seems possible. i will not have quite this course. hopefully this review will get someones attention if anyone cares.

There are never enough peer review opportunities available when I have completed my assignment and am ready to review others' assignments. As a result, I have to wait multiple days, sometimes even a full week in order to completed a course within this program. Update...several days later, and still no peer review available. This program is dysfunctional and I would never recommend it to anyone. I would like a refund asap!

Personally, communication between departments was a natural thing. I never thought that stakeholders management could be one of the subjects to study. This course gave me a different perspective on this part of collaborative communication.

This course has been really insightful and I will admonish anyone who would like to properly understand the procurement process or take a new career in procurement to take up this course. It is clearly defined and easy to understand.

This course provides a good view of procurement and stakeholder management. But I think it is better if it provide more questions in the practice quiz.
