The course is very well explained and aligned to basic requirements to be a Project Manager but it can be little short and upto the point, cause for working professionals like me. it is too lengthy.

It could have been much for fun if I can have the eye contact with the instructor. If it was about the bad location of the prompter I think it can be improved.
