A good introductory course to the world of supply chain analytics. I really like the quiz, analytical test for decision making. Hoping to see if there's a more advanced class than this.

I enjoyed this course, lot of basics covered. And examples helped understand the concepts.

Graded assignments were good and many times I watched videos twice to have better understanding.

Overall as 1st course of the Supply Chain Essentials Specialization, this course lays the foundation.

Curso interesante y un poco retador. Se aprende mucho a interpretar métricas relacionadas con la cadena de suministro. Este curso, junto con el resto del programa son de más provecho si es que aprendes a manejar una herramienta de visualización como Power BI o Tableau.

The course was great but I was very disappointed by the peer review process. Many students are cheating/plagiarizing, provided blank work etc. This is making the certificate/specialization worthless at the end in the eyes of employers

It is a good start if you know nothing about supply chain and financials, like me. But i would like a little more information about how good we did in the last project, i mean, is a MOOC, but it could include some insightful points.
