I found this course to be a great introduction for someone with no previous knowledge in the field of Project Management. I personally learned a lot of new concepts with this course. The instructor is great at explaining these new concepts and giving relatable and easy-to-remember examples. I found it very rewarding and I am excited to continue on my journey to becoming a Project Manager.

I took this course at another institution and I have to say I learned more from Coursera's Google Foundations of Project Management course. This course was easy to understand and the examples were on point with what was being taught. I am so happy I decided to take this course. Thank you Google for the opportunity to learn from the employees at your organization. On to the next course.

I'm a project/PMO Leader with 20+ years experience. I did this course because I was trying to find a new training approach for new starters in my team. Great course, well explained. I especially like the focus on culture and org design. I also like the process agnostic approach - too many new PMs only believe there is one 'right way' that they learned on a Scrum-Master or Prince2 course.

The Google s educational program has ideias, principles, processes, and values that prepare us for the challenges of management near future.

A "Watterfall" of knowledge, this course is extemelly very well developed, with a suitability and integrity of a universe of industries, corporations and organizations.

A breath of fresh pinewood forest air in the educational landscape.

Excellent!

This is a great course. It provides better understanding of Project Management concepts and helps better understand the PM profession. The course is easy and interesting to navigate and easy to follow. I have finished it in 4 days, spending 2-3 hours a day. I recoment it to those who are looking for PM specialization or simply want to better understand Project Management Specialization.

Informative, thorough and masterfully crafted to cover every corner of the first steps in the world of Project Management. It is rich of exercises and interviews with professionals to provide the best insight over this world. A must- study for everybody, even those not interested in becoming project managers, as the skills being taught are really horizontal and useful to any profession.

This project management course provided a solid foundation of knowledge and skills. The content was well-structured, covering all the essential concepts and tools. The instructor's delivery was engaging, and the real-world examples helped me understand how to apply the concepts in practice. I feel more confident in my ability to manage projects effectively after completing this course.

Hi, I have took the 1st course of my project management. And I found very informative and usefull. Every thing in the course was well organised and explained. It would be also good to provide a cheatsheet summarising all of the information provided throughout the course (i.e. after the course is completed by the individual) in addition to the Gloassary. Kind regards, Hossein Afshari

The course is closer to Agile and its practices so it gives a very general overview of the basics of project management and doesn't dive in too deep on the traditional project management and its practices.

But this is a good course with great insights by people who are actually doing the work and in the field, and it's especially useful for people who want to work in project management.

This course was informative and gave very good insights about Project Management, Project Managers, the Skills of a Project Manager, different styles, Organisational culture, etc. It gave me a good, very good foundation to become as a Project Management in the future. The course was much interesting and engaging, and so I completed this course in a continuous streak, less than a week.

The course was great! I learned a great deal. The activities really brought the courses to life in the real world. I enjoyed doing the activities based on reality. It was very interesting to grade other student and observe how they handled the same tasks differently. I don't; however, find the CareerCircle and Google Job Platform helpful. No jobs have been sent my way. Dissapointing.

This course was interactive. Explained the main concepts well without unnecessary clutter. The timing of the knowledge questions and quizzes was helpful for the learner. The questions asked on the quizzes were relevant to build knowledge. The speakers were all engaging. I found the course to be an appropriate length. I found the price of the course to be fair and accessible for many.

I really liked this course. I had a lot going on for this course and had to push out my end date but I really appreciate the reminder emails as well to why I started this journey in the first place. The material was helpful and the videos help me to understand more as I am a visual learning. The knowledge checks and quizzes help to make sure I am understanding the material correctly.

I really enjoyed learning about Project Management from the basics and the course design was interactive and very knowledgeable . I absolutely loved the course and glad to be able to come across this course , Thanks to my family who shared this opportunity and my mentor Emilio and other industry experts who shared their experience along the way . Thank you Google Team and Coursera

I really want to learn Project Management for this had taken a couple of courses else where always online, and they were messy and without a logical pace, and I gave this course a shot because a friend of mine sent me the info in social media. I tried it without enthusiasm. Furthermore, I have to say, I'm thrilled to be able to learn more and get my certificate, and hopefully a job.

I thought it was well put together and reviewed topics that haven't been taught in other beginner courses I've taken. Our guide was interesting to listen to and spoke well. It was nice to watch videos from a variety of people that work for Google in various roles. It gave a sense of how many opportunities for Project Management are out there, many in places you wouldn't think of.

I really enjoyed this course! It was a lot of information, but the presentation of the learning material made it easy to digest. It was not overwhelming, and I appreciated that everything was introduced in a way that catered to all learning types. Some reading, some videos, and interactive components as well. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in project management.

Throughout this learning process, I found it unexpectedly surprising how integral effective communication and stakeholder management are in the role of a project manager. Beyond just the technical aspects of managing tasks and timelines, the human element and the ability to collaborate, motivate, and lead teams towards a common goal stand out as crucial factors for project success.

I have been in the non-profit workforce for almost 30 years and I learned a lot during this course about the role of project management. It made me reflect on my organization, our leadership structure, how decisions are made. The course was also validating for the work that I do. I feel like I am going to learn different tools and skills that can enhance what I am already doing.

The lessons in this course will prepare you for understanding your role as a project manager. I smiled, laughed and learned while completing this course. Most importantly I was inspired to continue studying and pursuing my goals. I know that this profession has a place for people like me and that the skills I have gained are going to help shape my future career. Thank you so much.

This online course gives each individual their own choice on how to approach their learning experience, how the process information and time to build a system of learning that works for them. It gives the foundational information and introduction into how to create, manage, best practices to follow. It gave very detailed information and made it easy to understand the coursework.

This was an excellent course for beginners who are interested in project management. From Emilio, the teacher/narrator, who took time to explain everything in layman terms, study materials that were amazing, resources for further learning, to fun quizes (seriously, how did you make a quiz sound fun?!), I thoroughly enjoyed this course, and hope that all the others did / will too!

My entire journey through the project management foundation course has been a learning experience for me, and I have gained insight and a better understanding of the impact and role of a project manager. Yes, I had already started a project before I began the program. However, thanks to the foundation course, I was able to reassess my team and more effectively handle daily tasks.

Just want to appreciate Google for creating this very informative and fundamental guide for aspiring project managers. Being a generalist, the terms used here are not new to me but I always struggle to put what I do into an job identity I can identify with. This course has provided me with much clarity in the development of my career and how I can better work with my colleagues.
