Very informative. Did not realize there was more in order to get the certificate. Need to be more transparent with the actual course agenda and allow for a less controlled way to get thru the courses.

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.

This course was very user friendly and I am a not so techy person. Plenty of additional resources from outside the course classroom were provided for every topic along the way, with real life examples and the ability to chat with classmates. Those tools combined with graphs and images helped to make the material way more memerable. The best part for me was that I was able to follow along with and complete the tasks in my own time. I highly recommend taking this course both for the official certification and the professional and personanal development.

As a new project manager, I found this course to be fantastic. It provides a great overview of what project management is for those of us who are just getting started and I appreciate the additional insights from program/project managers who have found this career path from many different backgrounds (army, bartending, etc.) It is amazing how many skills translate to this kind of work and I have noticed this myself as I have a background in sales. I would highly recommend this course if you are new to project management or looking for a career change.

This course was a very nice introduction to the foundations of project management. The mix of videos, reading materials, quizzes, and tasks was very engaging. Emilio did a great job of explaining the concepts in an understandable and engaging way! I am looking very much forward to the next courses. Just one idea for improvement: It would be very helpful if we could download all reading sections, as many of them provided very nice summaries of what has been learned in the videos (printing the pages as PDF within my browser did not work for me).

This course is incredibly engaging, well thought out and presented in an easy to understand format. I wish I could recommend this course to every Corporation for their employees to take, since everyone who works within an organization is a Project Manager in one way or another.
The Google employees who present the course are next level cool and articulate, confident and friendly.
Very empowering and enlightening. You will learn not just about the technical side of Project Management, but the human side as well. Behind all projects are people!

This is a really great introduction into the field. The downloadable materials for the course are a great organizational resource that could be incorporated into your work almost everyday ! I highly recommend for people to consider taking some interpersonal/communications course. From a collaborators standpoint, it is really important to come into collaborative projects with some kind of concept of how the process of feedback works and how it can impact your outcomes and even different aspects of your career. Good luck and keep thriving!

I very much liked the course. The videos and readings were not too long and were indeed engaging. I appreciate offering it as I am trying to expand my learning and help my candidacy for job opportunities as well as learning personally. If Google and Coursera could offer classes related to financial management similar to CFP or CMA with a certificate would be absolutely wonderful. with CFP even if we go through the course, if we are not working at investment companies, we cannot earn or receive the degree. Thanks again. Sima Hassassian

As is name suggests, the course is a foundation course. Clear, concise and well delivered program. Assignments and Quiz cannot be taken causally and they test your understanding of the subject. People who are currently project and program managers at Google, share their career journey and aspects of project management which they apply to both professional and personal life was an important take away for me from this course. I'm really impressed with the diversity which all these people bring to the table and add value to Google family.

Alhamdulillah completed the Foundations of Project Management course by Google
In this course, I learned what project management is along with the role and value of a project manager, the project life cycle and the tasks to manage a project from start to finish. Learned about different project management methodologies and tips for choosing the right method for any project. Also learned about how creating simple team connections can lead to a successful project outcome and how organizational structure and culture can impact the project.

At this point I would like to gain a deeper understanding of the different phases of project management. As I progressed through this course I have realized that many aspects of my previous jobs would have gone more smoothly had I had this type of training earlier. I am more interested in project management without taking on a leadership role when undergoing change within an organization. I have had such a negative experience with this in the past that I would prefer to support someone else in that role rather than manage the changes.

I must say that cousera has added a fresh dimension to my academic life and zest for same. Studying this course injected into me a new zeal towards pursuing project management courses and I am now daring to go for PMP CAPM etc! I feared these courses before but the study of this course, even though due a number of complexities like power outage challenges in Nigeria and harsh conditions of living, I couldn't finish the other levels of the course before it closed down on me!
Thank you for the powerful opportunity and lifetime impact!

I am pleased with the knowledge gained from the Google Project Management course, as it has reinforced my understanding that I have been applying project management principles throughout my daily life. The course has empowered me to confidently take on responsibilities as a project manager, whether working on complex projects as a beginner or leveraging expertise in a specific field. While I recognize that my capabilities may be more limited in certain industries, I feel well-prepared to manage projects within my areas of expertise.

I think this course provides a very good understanding of the basics of project management. It was easy to follow the videos and other materials. Although I did not formally work in a project management role, after going through these videos in this course, it made me understand that my previous roles were, in fact, project management roles. I was doubtful that it would be an easy journey for me toward project management. But after taking this course, I am now more confident. Looking forward to the next course in this certification.

São aulas bem gerais, passam rapidamente pelo assunto, mas é muito interessante saber sobre o modelo do gerenciamento. As provas são muito bem elaboradas, mas é possível terminar esse curso em 1 semana tranquilamente, as aulas são curtas e os exercícios são rápidos. These are very general classes, they quickly cover the subject, but it is very interesting to know about the management model. The tests are very well designed, but it is possible to finish this course in 1 week easily, the classes are short and the exercises are quick.

This course is really incredible and one of the topics that I liked the most was the following and I believe that it is what can make a big change in many companies, the importance of organizational culture. The culture of an organization defines its identity. Its identity essentially describes how the company conducts its business, both internally and externally. A company's values and organizational culture go hand in hand; its values are part of its identity. You can almost think of an organization's culture as its personality.

Really fantastic first course. Although I have quite a bit of project management experience, there were modules and clarifications that better informed me of what a career in Project Management really entails. The content was engaging and informative. There wasn't a video or reading that I thought to myself "Why am I reading/watching this?" I can see that this course would be tremendously beneficial for someone just getting into Project Management, but also beneficial to folks that have some experience in the field (like me).

Employers appreciate these kinds of classes and can appreciate what's needed. I have developed during my learning. There is an opportunity to feature this project in my portfolio and add details to illustrate my rational thinking and skills. My recently completed course would look great on my profile.
