Based on some statements made throughout the course it seems as if it is believed that persons take this course do so because they are looking to apply for a Project Management job or that they are already in a project management position and that is not the case all of the time. For example, I am taking the courses simply because I want to expand my knowledge...not because I am interested in searching for a project management position.

Seems like the last week of this course fell off and didn't have enough training material to stay on track for the planning phases. when it got into resume training and linkedin topics I started to question how much I was learning from this course. That type of information seemed out of place and should be closer to the end of the training course. Overall it was still good just seemed to lack a strong finish.

This is course no. 3 in the 6-course Google Project Management: Professional Certificate. Project Planning is a very well-put-together course with excellent production quality. It covers the planning phase components, defining tasks and milestones, project timelines and budgets, risk management, communication, etc. I spent a bit more time on this trying to digest the information. All-in-all time well spent.

Love the hands-on exercises. Would love it more if the course talks and teaches about building a portfolio of the exercises from the very beginning. I began building my library. But effectively organizing them to reflect the learning objectives of the courses is difficult. Maybe the Project Plan chart we just used can be the first thing. That way, we know to add to it each time we complete an exercise.

i am understan from this course mainy things like risk managment,project planing,effective communication and Best practices for building a communication plan so i learn and important expriance inside lead the projects.for instance in the launching the project and end of the project i understand how to communicate with the stackhoolders and clients and how to minimaise the risk in side the project team.

Some things were hard to understand. You need to make assignments easier to understand. Plus, the notes for one video seem to suggest an answer that, when it came to the actual quiz, was deemed incorrect. I'd have someone go over the content of this course just to make sure that the inconsistencies are ironed out as well as more clarification where it is needed.

I learned a lot in this course and it was generally well-taught and well put together. However, this particular instructor wasn't my favorite, and I found most of the peer-reviewed assignments to be tedious and overly complex. I also thought that the last 2 modules were too long and repetitive and could have been covered with much less time/materials.

Week 5 was a little challenging as I felt the activity wasn't very clear when it came to directions. I am working from a Mac and a lot of the information provided didn't align with how a Mac works. Instead of using confusing terminology like "Source Sheet" just say "The Budget sheet". Other than that, I have no other issues. It's a great course!

Content was great, and very informative. Beware, though; some of your peer-reviewed projects will be marked down needlessly by unnecessarily competitive peers. Additionally, some of the test answers are beginning to only line up tangentially with the course material, and instead feel more like "guess what I'm thinking" questions.

I liked learning about risk management and communications plan and making project plans.

I did want to learn more about the different types of risk management strategies. I felt we could have used an extra lesson on that or more external resources for that.

The link for the Coursera Job Platform didn't work. There was an error.

- Lack of reading articles. Most of the times, the instructor only keeps speaking without underlining or highlighting from the presentation-slide. - The length should be improved in term of extending. since this is the HUGH topics. (ex. Fishbone diagram - There's a lot to cover more, cause many people use it incorrectly.)

The social media aspect of resume vs main resumes was not quite different and clear - I think we should show what should be in linkedin and what should be in the resume. Should the linkedin be exactly like the resume except with a few additions? Or should it be a summarized version of the resume.

Pls help with this

This course has equipped me with so much. Before, I would have so many problems with my projects perssonal or professional but that was because I didn't have the relevant documentation to help me through the process of running a successful project. With this course I now feel confident to take on my next project.

The course was helpfully for me, I benefits a lot of things and technique such as how to conduct the project scope , project buduget and project risk planning and the technique that realeted to them.

I thank the teacher and her collegues for effort the spend to provide this very powerfull course.

I would have been interested in more examples of communication failures. I feel like I'm developing a solid vocabulary from this course series. But I would have like to examine more instances where communication has failed and the recovery of that problem.

overall I enjoyed the course and I always take away from each video, constantly learning experience. What I don't like is the peer grades, waiting on somoene to grade projects when I'm ready to move on is holding me back from my goal of completion.

Concept of Peer Review is great. But peer's reviewing don't necessarily accurately grade. I found a mistake, after reviewing, that I would have marked wrong/not answers selected. Maybe a grade Exemplar for peers to review while grading would help.

Great information and very detailed!

I would have liked more information and direction in the Communication Plan section however, I was able to take the exemplar and compare my assignment to gain a better understanding.

Thanks Coursera!

Lots of great info. My only criticism would be that sometimes the information shared feels repetitive. I enjoyed learning about project planning because so many of the core principals are applicable in other fields and life in general.

I really appreciate the practical parts of this course - I learned a lot while doing the excercises. I only felt that this course was much harder and that it didnt prepare me as good for the final quizes like the other courses before.

Peer review have some shortcomings. There should be paid option to review assignments. Depending on the complexity, I think something between $1 to $10 USD could be doable for those that want feedback from an experience practitioner.

Very informative, but I needed more help and guidance on some of the forms with more explaination. Need more than quick overview of how to create a chart before having to be graded on having to do by ourselves. Just a suggestion.

The Training was a bit challenging as expected it cant be smoothe sailing all the way. The trainer was good, audible and clear in her explanations. I would recommend this course to anyone interested to pursue project management.

The lesson material and instructors are nothing short of exceptional.

I also would encourage that the peer-grading format be reviewed because it delays approval.

But in all, I am enjoying every bit of my learning here.

Thanks

Amazing as the others, but there was one quiz, I believe week 5 that was very confusing. The videos and texts did not necessarily convey clearly the information needed to be 100% sure how to answer some of the questions.
