The contents, pacing and insights of the presenters in the MOOC were all great. Useful information. Recommend taking this course, if only to rephrase your existing knowledge in more formal terms.

Intense pace, much content and concepts to absorb, but really well designed. Modules and concepts are intelligently broken down and the learning path makes sense quickly. There's also much valuable additional material (readings, tool-kits) that I will be able to use further. Working at MSF, I will recommend this MOOC colleagues and friends. I also think I will come back to it in the future. Congrats to the teams that put up this MOOC, you can tell there has been hard work behind it!

Overall, great course. It was challenging and informational. The only issue I experienced was in the video captions. Many times there were errors in the captions in terms of punctuation, or entire words that were incorrect. As I read the captions to further enhance my learning, this caused some difficulty. Its an easy fix, and everything else was great.
