This has been a good learning experience. I now know the different project management tools available. I have a good understanding of project initiation and how to determine the success of a project.

Un curso excelente que me ha ayudado a cambiar la mirada sobre algunos tópicos y con el cual he aprendido sobre ciertos conceptos y herramientas que desconocía.
Por otro lado, el material brindado es muy claro, el tutor grandioso y las evaluaciones ayudan mucho para cerrar y entender cada tema.
Estoy muy felíz de tener la oportunidad de realizar este curso! Gracias Coursera y Google

This is really a nice course on project management. I like the fact the examples are not strictly limited to digital projects, but encompass a wider range of different projects in different industries.
The first-hand accounts by seasoned Google PMs are fantastic.
The info provided is helpful and certainly gives a good understanding of what project management is all about.

Loving this learning mechanism, having to do this at my own pace is one of the best aspect of this course / courses on Coursera, the confidence and flexibility. Have done project management informally, its great taking this course and validating what I have done, acknowledging areas of improvements and look forward to putting this formailized methodology into place.

It was more practical than the Foundation of Project management.
I liked the same business case with different scenario.
For recommendation, many software were introduced and I have not used them all. I t is time-consuming for doing trial for even some. Hoped to have ideas/recommendation which software is fit based on size on company, industry, and size of project.

This course was thoughtfully crafted and developed. I enjoyed and appreciated the use of various media (videos, readings, activities, quizzes, etc) to learn the material. Overall, I've learned that I already do a lot of these things, but didn't really know the terminology. Some topics were new to me entirely. This course is definitely going to help me in my career!

I found the step-by-step understanding of initiating a project to be very useful for guiding teams in game development. I took everything I learned in this course and applied it to professional experiences. In addition, applying and understanding the skills learned in this course helped to boost my confidence and openness to teach others what I've learned.

I thought the course was excellent. One thing I would like to see change is more information about the different Project Management tools. Maybe a comparison and contrast chart so we can look at the various differences between the PM tools. This would help the student visually see and understand the differences that can occur between different PM tools.

I have really enjoyed this course so far and I love the video format. However, I feel it would be easier to better understand how to fill out the graded assignments and worksheets with a video as well. I often times find myself frustrated trying to figure out how to complete the assignment. I think its easier to reverse engineer these sort of things.

It is a very complete course that covers the entire framework to develop a successful project. It teaches about the stakeholders and their analysis, their influence and management, also about the different tasks and work tools such as RACI, the scope of a project, the criteria, the SMART objectives and the results that determine a successful project.

This has been again a very intersting second part of the journey; acquiring and strenghtening my PM project . Happy that I'm still in my plan and my time is well used. Similar the course 1, I really appreciated the methodology used and the content, which is not really easy for the beginner like me, but made simple in a simple so anyone can try it.

This course was a challenging one as I expected it to be. Giving a more elaborate detail on the documentation aspect and providing you with Peer-Graded Assignments for an extra hands-on experience with what is to come. Thank you to all the instructors who shared their experience and introduced such an enlightening course about Project Initiation.

Fantastic course that helped me learn so much about starting a successful project. The material challenged me, helped me stretch and learn and, ultimately, I discovered that so many of the tools I've painstakingly created over the years...are not just my own geeky mind but...but...incredibly valuable. Thank you, Coursera! Future, here I come!

Very intersting and well designed certificate for beginners with no clue of Project Management, I definetely learned a lot from this course and feel motivated to continue. The lessons are quick and to the point, the assignments are challenging enough for beginner level. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to start on project management.

I believe this course gave as broad of introduction to 'initiation' as is possible. I feel confident that with the skills I learned in this course, I will be able to quickly learn my employers PM management tools, create effective teams and use RACI harts, complete a project charter, and effectively evaluate and communicate with stakeholders.

This was actually a pretty good challenge for a course after the introductory project management course 1. I think it was a good balance of reading, listening, and lots of hands-on tasks. I was thankful that I didn't actually have to peer review any work, which was a topic introduced mid-course. JuAnne was a great and enthusiastic instructor!

Course was thoughtfully made. The instructor was a just a bit disengaged with the audience. And she speaks a bit slow for me. Also, there are some participants in the peer review portion who do not know what to do. And instead of asking for help from other peers action on items that they're not supposed to action which affected my grades.

I want to highlight one issue regarding peer graded assignment.
I had reviewed one peer graded assignment and in that assignment, the person has not written one necessary point so I haven't given a point to him for the particular.
Because of that the same person graded my assignment and failed me even though there was every detail present.

It wasn't easy, especially PM is totally new subject for me. I was stuck for few days at some topics and keep watching the same video again and again, read here read there until I fully digest. Kind of scare for the next course but I will carry on slowly until the end,. Hope all my effort and time will be wasted and get a better job.

I find the course really intuitive. Its helps me understand a lot about the initial phase of any kind of a project such as SMART goal, OCRs, scope trade-off triangle, cost and benefits analysis, stakeholder analysis, RACI chart, project chart and other tools in management, scheduling, productivity and collaboration. Thanks so much!!!

The Project Initiation course was very challenging, yet informative. The primary instructor along with other topical instructors made the course interesting and engaging. Videos, readings, practical activities, and supplemental readings contributed to the knowledge I gained about this aspect of project management. Nicely done!

A good and clear way to start your way in the Initiation phase. The lessons are really good, the instructor does a really great job at explaining and being relatable. The content is what can be expected from a Google course. This is just the beginning but inside the lessons you can find resources to dig deeper in some topics.
