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.

Hands down one of the best courses I have taken online. A mix of video, reading and learning your knowledge through quizzes. The videos are on point, clear and easy to comprehend.
The structure of the course is well done. Moreover, stories of current project/program/portfolio managers are inspiring in its own way. This is the first time I have seen that the course is emphasizing on transferable skills, which I really believed in.

This course is so simple to follow along with! I've learned quite a ton about Project Management and how anyone, and I mean ANYONE, can become a Project Management. I typically have difficulty staying focused on a task/subject matter. However, this program kept me accountable, and I was able to earn my certificate from course 1. I loved the lessons so much that I will complete all six and become proficient in Project Management.

The course titled "Foundations of Project Management" is 1st course of the 6 courses on Project Management offered by Google as part of their Project Management Certification Course. I found it very well researched and the content to be very practical and industry oriented . The other good feature was that it was taught by people from industry who shared their first hand experiences in the field of Project Management at GOOGLE.

The course was extremely interesting for me. It completely changed my initial idea about project management, and gave me an understanding of the importance of the right choice of technologies and tools, as well as effective communication at all stages of project management. An interesting presentation of the material, unexpected questions, as well as the facilitator's enthusiasm for the topic, inspired me to continue studying.

I recently completed the Fundamentals of Project Management course, and it exceeded my expectations. The content was well-structured, making it easy to understand even for beginners. The explanations of the project life cycle, methodologies like Agile and Waterfall, and the phases of project management were clear and practical. The course also provided useful examples and exercises to apply the concepts in real-world scenarios.

This course gives excellent and comprehensive understandings about the foundation of project management for the newbie PMs. Also for people who are seeking for employment, this course teaches you how to ask good questions to help you understand how organizational culture and structure impact the way you manage projects in the future position.

The course content was excellent. Certain change management concepts could have been broken down with much simpler examples. Terms like scrum and sprint, introduced in this course, needed more examples to understand better. The additional course material provided throughout the course was really useful. Maybe more ungraded assessments based on the additional content provided will make sure students go through them mandatorily.

I’ve enjoyed this amazing course since it covers many topics such as the life cycle of a project, the tasks to manage the different methodologies and tips for choosing the right method for your project. In addition, how creating simple team connections and how organizational structure and culture can impact a project. These topics provide the foundation for beginning any new project and I’d recommend anyone to start from here.

This course is the first in a series of six to equip you with the skills you need to apply to introductory-level roles in project management. Project managers play a key role in leading, planning and implementing critical projects to help their organizations succeed. In this course, you’ll discover foundational project management terminology and gain a deeper understanding of the role and responsibilities of a project manager.

It is very easy if you already have few years work experience regardless in which field you may find the content is talking about on the things you've already knew, especially if you are working in marketing. I ended up skipped a lot of videos as the reading materials summarised the video content. If you are fresh into the workspace this it is highly recommended to go through course. It is very organised an easy to understand.

This has been a great course so far, I wish that someone had recommended it to me sooner! It provides good definitions for all the basics of project management, and leaves the student being able to look back on their own job experience to see how this fits in to existing experience and provided further contextualization. the teachers are clear and informative and break down the topics well to make it all very understandable.

It was a great content. I was wondering how can I not learn this before even start playing the role of a Project manger. I would highly recommend those who are planning to shift their carrier or start their carrier as Project Manager, to take this course. Couse has been planned on a step by step manner to ensure the learner to get a feel of not getting confused with lot of content. Its a five star learning experience for me.

The course curriculum is full of unbelievably handy information...I am very pleased to listen and read all of the content...thanks so much... The video speaker, Emilio, is very good, far beyond many online courses I have attended before...I wish he would tell many more lessons...a very big thank you to him... Through the course, we met many real-life project managers and their stories...those stories were also very useful...

This first course really outlined what a project manager is and what will be expected of you. If you are trying to see if this is a career path for you I certainly encourage you to take this course. You will know immediately if this is a fit or not. I appreciate learning all the different names project manager can go by in different organizations and all of the encouragement to not need to know everything to apply for jobs.

Amazing course! I put a pause on studying anything for quite some time and I think this course was a perfect way to jumping back into the habit - easy and comprehensive materials, opportunities to test what I remember and ability to do tasks when I have the time outside of work. Strongly recommend this because it's a great introduction to the world of Project Management. Looking forward to learning more in the next courses!

Excellently put together, easy to navigate, with relevant content for anyone starting out in Project Management. Love the simplicity, use of glossary, infographics, videos, discussion forums to keep it active and engaging. Found this course in Foundations of Project Management very useful as someone who is working as Project Coordinator at a biopharma company and would highly recommend to anyone honestly. Thank you Google!

I think this course is excellent. It provides a comprehensive update on the latest terms and methodologies in project management. Although many of us have some experience in the field, we often lack the proper methodology or find ourselves doing things that have already been done before. It is incredibly beneficial to keep learning, and Google is an excellent source to learn from. Thank you for providing this opportunity.

Based on work I've done in college and learning I've done online elsewhere, I find that the course organization, the presentation of material, and, of course, the teachers, rated extremely high. Emilio, in particular, was an excellent teacher and host and I enjoyed being led by him through the fundamental issues of project management. I am certain that I am as prepared as I could hope to be for the remaining five courses.
