As in the other UCI Extension courses, this one have a good structure and a complete set of information that makes its simple to understand the basics of Schedule and Estimating in project management.

I enjoyed this course, the mix of the video presentations and the powerpoints are well done. The instructor does an excellent job. the 'bonus videos' and 'panelist interviews' are very good as well.

It uses PMBOK 2013 as the basics for the course (please, update the contents !). It has more power point presentations than videos from experts in the area. The lecturer is good at sharing knowledge.

The quality of the instructor videos is poor and they are difficult to comprehend at times because the instructor is reading directly from a script rather than actually teaching the material.

Some of the videos are helpful but a lot of the information is just copied from the PMBOK and could use more explanation.

This a well paced class which does a good job of breaking down the fundamentals of project management cost accounting.

the questions are way too easy. It should have more hands-on projects to check the knowledge of the students.

The course is good overall, but material and content is a bit old. Would be perfect if they are renewed.

I think the Course touches the basis of Budgeting and scheduling but feels light on the information.

More videos/ audio sessions instead of slides would have been better for understanding the concepts.

I don't really like the format. I want lectures from the instructor, not animation and slides.

Much lighter than the introduction, leaves you wanting more... Maybe that's the plan?

Slightly better than the last course. Still very inaccessible language in my view.
