This is a very useful course for any HR professional who wants to have an overview on Employee Compensation and Benefits. Thanks for detailed and thought- through lectures and the great opportunity.

Both the professors were amazing! However, I would like to point out that since everyone undertaking this course is from the USA, it's better to skip out on the portion about US Law and compliance.

My biggest problem with this course is that is really US specific. As an European habitant and worker it as really hard to understand the methods what are in the US. It's interesting but too specific.

Very interesting. However, I would suggest to have a less US-focused approach as a lot of us are not living in US and we could not care less about the labor laws there.

This course should be revised to become more useful for international audience , specially week 3 contains just US law information and no other counties examples.

It was an excellent way to identify my interest in learning more about this topic, but many parts needed to be updated and more insightful.

The information in the course is pretty obvious and is quite clear without any knowledge about HR. Expected deeper dive into the topic.

This course is weaker than the first and third. The third week of the course if not useful for the people who don't live in USA.

INTERNATIONAL LEARNERS - this course is quite US focussed, and especially WEEK 3 where you have to do a peer-reviewed assignment which can be very time-consuming if you, like me, do not know a lot about the US system and laws around pension, insurance etc. I personally did not enjoy that aspect of the course as it was irrelevant to my learning and I was quite resentful to have to spend so much time on something I will never use. It was a futile exercise for me.
Other aspects of the course were also US focused. Few bits in WEEKS 1-3 were universally applicable, while WEEK 4 was much more general and learnings from this week can be applied anywhere taking cultural context into account.

I like Mike's lesson very much! That is the week 4. Very informative and practical! Meanwhile, for week 3 lesson, not too meaningful for the learners from outside of The States. I strongly recommend the learner to focus in week 4 lessons if you are from outside of The States and you are looking for some ideas can benefits to your HRM in your organization. Week 1 and week 2 lessons are helpful too.

Not as good as other courses in the series. Highly repetitive content in week 4.
It must be realized that the course is being taken by students across the globe hence doing an assignment based on a job in USA is very difficult. Besides entire week 3 is dedicate only for rules in USA which is not at all useful for students outside of USA

Alan Benson appears to be intelligent and acknowledged in this field, but his teaching style is tedious, very informative, complicated, and monotone - many terms, numbers, definitions, and perplexing "explanations."
I would advise the teacher to work on his vocalization. It's sometimes difficult to understand what he's saying. Also, the class should be more dynamic for this complex subject to be easier to understand.
I consider myself intelligent, and I found his final assignment in the Human Resources Capstone to be challenging to complete and repetitive. In addition, he only provided a few examples of what he wanted us to achieve in this project. On the contrary, the teacher's class in week four was more enjoyable, dynamic, and simple to follow.
I could not wait to finish this course!

Too US-centric. Very strange concept of non-monetary benefits. It very common to forgo cash remuneration for non-monetary benefits (mainly for tax advantages) which was largely ignored in this course.
