The prof is excellent while teaching but for passing each course we need 3 person´s feedback for 1 paper! I had to wait more than a week because people does not have this much time and they were not giving assesment on my paper. So, I m satisfied with everything except the passing assesement from 3 people on same paper system! it´s stupid and time consuming!

The centre idea about supply chain sourcing is tailored to managing relationship between the organization and it public that is, it supplier. It is one of the essential piece of understanding how a well functioning supply chain is built

Despite the topic that is so relatable for me as a Purchaser in Supply Chain areas, I am a bit disappointed with the course method which required the participant to discuss and review peer's assignments. I thought it was not effective and optimal. I suggest having more quizzes each week after completed video and reading would be more useful.

It mainly depended on research which is good for enhancing the finding ability, great assignment ideas and was very helpful in understanding how things work between companies and suppliers. however for me, I needed more videos because it's more effective than reading.

The course was good all in all. Could've gone a little deeper into the procure to pay systems. Also grading your classmate's work can be a little tedious, though I understand that it is beneficial for an enriched learning experience or at least that's the intent.

Overall a great experience, especially the graded assignments that required some research. There could have been more material in Week 3 and Week 4 that Mr. Leuschner explained in the videos. I believe a lot of essential content was skipped through.

The course is very practical and covers the most part of sourcing including kraljic matrix, product categorization and make or buy decision. I would love to see this course get developed into a fully-covered procurement and sourcing management.

This course was directly related to what I do on a daily basis. It was nice to use other terms used by persons in the industry. I believe this and other courses should be explored by persons in the field to help enhance their profession.

Great course, could have benefitted from deeper dives and questions on the lessons and less articles to read and review but still great course and great teacher.

Good course. But could have covered more in terms of vendor negotiation, contracts management etc. Course is more focused on categorization of suppliers.

The fundamentals reviewed in this course are helpful for beginners to SCM. This would be too basic for experienced SCM professionals.

The peer reviewed portions, while I understand the need, many of the students do not complete any of the work.
