The lecturer is fantastic, everything was clear, concise and easy to take notes on. It felt like a lot of details are condensed very well to make this a very informative and knowledge-building course.

Muy buen curso, enfocado a una primera toma de contacto en la metodologia Agile. Sin embargo, tambien profundiza en algunos conceptos importantes, por lo que no se queda para nada corto de nformacion.

All 5 of the courses so far have been great. A tip from me, If you feel you are pushing to make ground, to finish up fast, take a break. You are no longer absorbing the matierial when you push. It is better to go slow and remeber it all than to push to finish faster.

Actually ,I’m noticed on the Coursera platform that it is the best and most appropriate. He did not want distance education, because this platform is approved by many universities and international, and of course with the well-known Google company.

Thank you Coursera

This is a excellant course for beginner or someone is already practicing agile. it will help you realize that agile is more of a mindset change then a process or methodology or system.

hats off to Google and CourseEra team for developing and presenting this course.

As someone with nearly 20 years of Agile program experience, this is a very good introduction to the foundations, principles of Agile and concepts for being effective as a scrummaster vs "traditional" project manager. Good pre-requisite to Certified ScrumMaster.

This was a good summary of Agile principles and went into a good amount of detail on how to use the techniques and what applications these techniques have. It does not repeat much from prior courses in this program so it was nice to have all mostly new material!

The more I learn, the more I know that I don't know. This course introduced the very first stepping stone to Agile method in project management. I am now relearning this course to reinforce my loopholes in understanding comprehensively this amazing work tool!

Best certification I have ever taken (out of 20 courses or so). Filled with practical assignments and good examples. It is definitely a more time consuming course, but you will actually get your hands dirty with a lot of project management documents & skills.

Excellent. A terrific overview with real world examples. I especially appreciate how the developers of the content bring to light, repeatedly, that project management is always customized to the current endeavor and that hybrids of methodologies are the norm.

Me gustó mucho este curso, los contenidos son muy claros y la instructora es muy buena. Antes del curso tenía algunas nociones generales de metodologías ágiles, pero ahora tengo una visión mucho más clara y los elementos para poner en práctica este enfoque.

I enjoyed this journey very much. It was full of hands-on learning and real-life examples. I think it was more useful than theoretical, which means all participants gained practical skills. I appreciate Google and its team for offering this valuable course.

The course is practical, with a variety of format of interesting assignments. The step-by-step instructions and feedback for each quiz are encouraging. Peer-graded assignments provide appropriate pressure to work seriously plus create a sense of community.

This course was very challenging, yet fulfilled my desire to obtain more advanced skills on Agile/Scrum. I believe I worked harder in this course than in four courses completed prior to this one (5th). The content was engaging and meaningful. Thank you!

Really great overview of Agile project management. I like the holistic approach - sufficient but not overloaded theory, case studies and activities to have a working knowledge of Agile in the market place. Thanks for providing a great learning experience
