This was my first time doing a Google learning module using Coursera. I enjoyed the ease of information sharing and how easy it was to understand. I apprecaited the testing and ability to go back and review the matrial. I like the program design and I think I was able to absorb a great deal. Thank you very much Google.

This was really an insightful course, i learnt a lot about a project, project management, methodologies, organizational structure and culture, change management and more. It was such a beautiful experience, i look forward to taking the remaining 5 levels.

I strongly recommend it.

Thank you Coursera, thank you Google.

I think it is a lot of information to process, all the content is clear and important. it is the first time to me that I take an online course and everithing it is usefull. and the journey along the course is nice, how you use the tools like videos or trivia and the question while i am learning helps to maintain focus.

I very much enjoyed the content, and the various methods of presention wihtin the course, which includesd instructional videos, reading and short personal stories from goodle employees. Such a great opportunity to develop my skills, and knowledge base so that I can continue to pusure my passion for projects and people!

The First week was pretty much a waste of time but it really picks up starting week 2. I'm halfway through course 2 now and am already confident enough to apply to entry level project management jobs. What you make of this course is up to you but I believe with proper effort on your end this course is worth every cent.

This course was well put together for what it was designed to do: provide the foundation. The mix of videos, reading, quizzes, and testimonials definitely helped keep me from stagnating in the class. I have a hard time keeping my attention on a topic for very long IF the content doesn't vary, this class fit me well! :)

The course's user-friendly interface made navigation effortless, and the explanations were concise and straight to the point.

Just Wow! I would say from every aspect, the course was more practical than theoretical, walking through steps and understanding practical scenarios are the core fundamentals of the course, which really make it interesting. I look forward to finishing all my remaining parts and using it in real life as a core concept.

A great general overview of Project Management. As someone who is looking to get into this field is spoke about a lot of elements that I hadn't considered. There are some obvious parts, for sure. Overall it is informative and worth while. Sets a great foundation. The presentations are done well with quality speakers.

The course covers all the fundamentals and basic knowledge about project management. I believe anyone without any background of project management will find this useful. They also provide real life scenario, making it more realistic and applicable. The speakers also speak very clearly, making it easy for us to follow.

Brilliant course that introduces, refreshes and/or enlightens individuals keen on applying modern techniques in project management across a diverse array of professional settings from event management, construction management, industrial process management to Agile techniques in project management for the IT industry.

I really enjoyed this. It was educational but not overwhelming. I really loved the videos of those who work at Google company, what they do and their background. It made a PM position feel obtainable regardless of your current career or background. I think it was a great foundation and I'm eager to take the next part.

Great course. Many concepts are both discussed in the videos and reinforced in the text descriptions, which are also easy to save for later reference. The instructors are motivating. The material covers wide range of topics regarding all aspects of project management. And in general, the course is very well designed.
